Love Food Hate Waste has just launched the first of four seasonal meal planners. Easy Choice Family Kai Autumn Edition contains recipes and meal plans, using seasonal produce that is readily available, to keep costs down.

The meal planner and recipe book contain four weekly meal plans, with each week consisting of five dinner meals. Each meal will feed a family of six (two adults and four children under 10) or four adults, and the meal planners include a shopping list to help you stay within the budget. At around $60 per week the meal planners make it easy to eat well for less.

Register online to receive all four booklets as they come available and enjoy some great eating along the way, whilst feeling good about cutting out waste.

You can download the Easy Choice booklets, or sign up for the Love Food Hate Waste monthly newsletter at lovefoodhatewaste.co.nz.

Council supports the national Love Food Hate Waste programme as part of our drive to reduce waste. Love Food Hate Waste focuses on eating well on a budget using seasonal produce and cutting out waste – it's a win/win all round.
