Food waste tips

For a zero waste recipe, remember to make the most of your avocado pit and peels.

  • Avocado peel plant pot - Fill the peels with soil and plant seedlings inside. Their shape is the perfect size to help plants grow, and they retain moisture too.

  • Avocado pit tea - Put the pit in a small pan of water and boil for 5 minutes. Once soft, remove the brown skin and chop the pit into small pieces. Add the pieces back to the pot and boil for another 10 minutes. Strain into a cup then stir in a little honey.
