Still, the guys from Sorted Food have found a straightforward way to turn your dry turkey scraps into a gourmet “sausage” roll - all you need to do is fold some turkey, brie, parma ham, cranberry sauce (and a little bit of egg) into a roll of puff pastry, bake it in the oven, and you’re pretty much done. The name of this recipe might be a little misleading since no sausage meat is required. This festive season, here are 21 simple ideas to fight food waste from your own home. Holiday food tastes too good to throw away, but more importantly, food waste is too unfair to get away with. Sounds like something's going wrong somewhere, then? Meanwhile, 1 in 9 people worldwide struggle to find safe, nutritious food to live a healthy life, even though the world produces more than enough food to feed everyone on the planet.

And in the US, Americans throw out approximately 200 million pounds of turkey after Thanksgiving - quite a bad start to the season. That amounts to £4.8 million in wasted food. In the UK, for example, new research found that at least 50,544 metric tons of food is thrown out at Christmas each year, including 4,800 metric tons of mince pies and 2,000 metric tons of cheese. Much of the glorious food piled onto tables during the holidays ends up lining the bin rather than your stomach.
