introduction (7ºa) These past weeks, 7A had a challenge… A challenge to prepare a food recipe with no food waste, but still remaining nutritious and edible! In 8 groups, we created/searched for a recipe with no food waste, then, we cooked, filmed, edited a video, and ate our food. It all started when we began to study Unit 6 from the book Impact 2: Are You Going to Eat That? This Unit taught us about food waste and that just because the food is ugly (it isn’t in the standards of the supermarkets) it doesn’t mean it can’t be nutritious and fresh! In these pages you will see recipes with no food waste that we’ve made and we want to involve you In our project so you can make the recipes that are registered in this book. Food waste is a global problem of impressive magnitude, with approximately one third of all the food produced being thrown away each year. This affects the economy, the food safety, and the environment. It’s crucial to implement sustainable practices in all stages of the food supply chain and to take global and local actions to face this growing issue, which intensifies the hunger and inequality problems. That’s why campaigns that talk about this subject are very important. In our state, for example, the issue of food wastage presents a significant concern. Despite the region’s agricultural abundance and a thriving food industry, a considerable amount of food goes to waste each year. As an example, according to ALESC (Agêngia Legislativa do Estado de Santa Catarina), there are around 900 thousand people hungry in the state who can only find rotten food on trash. That is, they are in a moderate or severe situation of food insecurity. There are still two million people in our state experiencing mild food insecurity. This represents 40.6% of households in Santa Catarina with some degree of food insecurity and there’re a lot of people who throw away produce just because of its shape or color. The consequences are not only economic but also environmental and social. Food waste contributes to resource depletion and increases gas emissions, while simultaneously leaves many without access to nutritious meals. In conclusion, after all the data we have presented, we hope that you have understood that the appearance of the food on supermarket shelves doesn’t really matter that much and that we should decrease the waste of food. The decision to change is ours, we don’t have much time left so we want to increase the number of conscious consumers that will not waste more food.

RECIPES (7ºA) ROYAL PIZZA (Alice D’ávila, Isadora, Larissa and Maria Luisa) The margherita pizza is a main dish, and this recipe serves 8 slices. We’re using a fridge, an oven, a round pizza pan, a pan, a spoon and a knife. INGREDIENTS For the sauce, we’re going to need: - 1 tomato - 1 onion - 1 garlic clove - a pinch of salt - a pinch of paprika - a pinch of oregano - a pinch of olive oil For the pizza, we’ll need: - 1 tomato (which totals 2 tomatoes) - 200g of cheese (you may not need to use all of it in the recipe) - a buyable/already done pizza dough (we’re not baking it) - approximately 8 leaves of basil, but it can change as your wish This recipe has 2 parts, the making of the sauce and the making of the pizza. The first thing we’re going to make is the sauce. We’ll chop the tomato, the onion and the garlic and then braise the onion and garlic in a pan with olive oil. Then, we add the tomato extract and also the chopped tomato and mix it well, adding a good pinch of salt, paprika and oregano. We’re going to stir it in medium heat until it turns into a homogeneous liquid. The second part of the recipe is the making of the pizza; we first slice the tomato and reserve it. Then, make small holes in the dough using a fork, pour the sauce uniformly over it, then spread the cheese, the slices of tomato and the leaves of basil, in this order. Then we put the pizza in the oven at 180°C and check the dough every 10 minutes until slightly browned.

CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH AVOCADO AND LEMON (Bernardo S., Bernardo G., Matias, Pedro Longo)

INGREDIENTS - 2 cups all purpose flour - 1/2 cup cocoa powder - 3/4 cup sugar - 1 1/2 tsp baking soda - 1/2 tsp salt - 1 1/2 cup milk - 1/4 cup avocado, mashed - 1 tsp lemon juice - 1 tbsp coffee beans (optional) DIRECTIONS Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom of two 6” baking pans with compostable parchment paper (I like to use If You Care brand, which is certified home compostable). I did not grease the bottom or sides of the pan since I did not have access to package free butter or oil. In a large bowl, sift or whisk together flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda and salt. Set aside. In a blender, combine cashew milk, avocado, and optional coffee beans and blend until smooth. Coffee grounds can be strained and composted or left in the liquid. Pour the cashew milk mixture into dry ingredients and gently mix together until 90% combined. Add lemon juice and stir just until everything comes together. The lemon juice will react to the baking soda and you may see lighter colored streaks. Mix until the lemon is just stirred in. Be mindful not to over mix, as this activates the gluten in the flour and will make for a tougher cake texture. Bake for 22-28 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean if tested in the center. Let cool for a minute, then run a butter knife or offset spatula along the sides to release the cake from the pan. Continue to let cool for 10 minutes, then invert on a cooling rack to cool completely. 6

introduction (7ºB) The 7th grade has learnt this trimester how harmful food waste is. We discovered that the food and vegetables may be ugly, but still nutritious, and not always the appearance matters. With that in mind, our class decided to make a cooking book to influence and warn people about food waste, and teach others how to produce delicious, healthy and sustainable food, involving your friends and family. It is estimated that 17% of all global food production is wasted, most of it inside homes. Locations that serve food, such as restaurants for example, totalize 5% of waste. The amounts of agricultural and food waste combined represent approximately 1.3 billion tons, which is equivalent to ⅓ of everything produced in the world. The most wasted produce are fruits and vegetables. Each year, every Brazilian throws away 60 kg of food, including perfectly fresh items, such as tomatoes, bananas, oranges, leafy greens, and onions. This unnecessary waste has a big economic impact, costing Brazilian families an average of R$1.630,00 annually for families of three. Approximately 900,000 people in Santa Catarina suffer from famine. To end this, it’s vital to reduce food waste and use fresh produce before it becomes rotten, benefiting both the environment and those in need. In conclusion, that leftover pasta you just threw out… yeah, that was a bigger waste than you imagine! The increase of food waste isn’t a joke, and we are trying to help those numbers decrease in size. Our little cookbook has recipes that are nutritious, delicious and zero waste so we can tackle this problem step by step and crumb by crumb. Enjoy!
