]]>Whether you’re peeling an orange for a snack or trimming the tops of strawberries, there’s always food waste when it comes to fruit! If you want to utilize the whole fruit and get a real bang for your buck to make these DIY projects with fruit scraps.
Both the core and skin of an apple are edible, but they’re not to nice to bite into depending on what you’re cooking. But, instead of throwing them away, save them for an apple jelly! Boil the scraps in water, strain, add sugar and lemon juice and you’ll have an upgrade on your regular pb&j!
Citrus peels are completely edible, although if you bite into one right now it would be very bitter. But, if you blanch them in hot water the bitterness is really mellowed out, and then it’s the perfect vehicle for dipping into chocolate! Let the chocolate harden and you have a treat with a side of vitamin C!
Everyone loves sangria, and the best part is all the pieces of fruit you see! Instead of using fresh fruit, save your scraps and put that into a sangria! For red wine, apples, and citrus are unstoppable. For white wine, you can use anything lighter like kiwi skins, peach peels, or anything else you have lying around.
