Right, its confession time. When I said I had gone almost a whole week without wasting one scrap of fruit or vegetable leftovers, I may have been misleading in my zero waste success. Whilst it is true that I have not thrown any food in the bin for the last 6 days, there have been a few items which completely stumped me; and as such I have been keeping them in a bowl in the fridge until I could find a use for them.
But no such inspiration has come, so now I need YOUR help in finding a use for the following items:
Exhibit A: Tomato vine stalk
Exhibit B: Garlic skin
Exhibit C: Onion skins and ends
Exhibit D: Hard and nobbly courgette end
I would be sooo grateful if you could email me, tweet me or comment on the bottom of this post any ideas you have for using up the above items!

Not sure I would want to eat them, but obviously your composter will love them. I wish I had done as well as you.

I saw Jamie Oliver whizz up his vine tomatoes (stalks and all) as it makes sauce tastier

Onion ends can be kept in the fridge for several days as they absorb bad smells making them a free odouriser

The courgette can be chopped in a mini chopper and used in a variety of dishes and the garlic skins could be wrapped in muslin bags and hung in your windows to keep vampires away 😉
