(Money-Saving + Health Boost)

Before ordering food or cooking something new, open your fridge and choose at least one ingredient you already have, then build your meal around that.

Example:

  • See leftover rice → make a quick fried rice.
  • See wilting vegetables → make a simple stir-fry or soup.
  • See cooked chicken → add to salad, wrap, or pasta.

    Why it works:

  • Reduces food waste (one of the biggest hidden money drains).
  • Keeps meals healthier because you use fresh ingredients instead of fast food.
  • Builds creativity and flexibility in your diet.
  • Saves time — no more “What should I eat?” paralysis.
