It is estimated that 40 percent of the food that is sold in the United States never gets eaten. This means that $218 billion is wasted each year due to food waste. The average family of four wastes $1,500 per year in food. Each person wastes an average of 20 pounds of food every month.
The good news is that there is a new app that can change that. It will help you make the most of the food and ingredients that you have in your refrigerator. The name of the app is Meal Prep Mate. This is an important app because more people are meal prepping in order to make it easier for them to eat healthier.
Meal Prep Mate allows people to create their own meal prep plan or add to an existing one. The app will allow people to input the number of days that you are prepping for and the number of people who are eating. Meal Prep Mate will provide you with a list of recipes, shopping lists and accurate portion sizes.
It also provides a waste less guide. It will teach you how to store ingredients. It will also teach you how to remix different meals so that nothing goes to waste. Lisa Sherman is the president of the Ad Council. She partnered with Save the Food to help create the app.
Lisa stated that they wanted to bring something new to the market that will make it easier for people to prepare their meals at home. It will also help protect the environment and help people save money.
It is easy to use the Meal Prep Mate app. You will be able to build a meal plan and choose a meal plan. It is also free for you to use the Meal Prep Mate.
