Aim 2022: to implement the "kitchen of use".

According to data from the "2020 Food Waste Study" presented by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, each Spaniard threw away an average of 31 kilos/litres of food and drink, which means a total waste of 1,364 million kilos/litres of food in our country. That is why we at Avianza would like to propose a commitment for this year: the kitchen of use.

Poultry, one of the most nutrient-rich and versatile meats when it comes to cooking, are ideal for this purpose, and we'll be demonstrating this regularly with tasty and easy-to-prepare recipes. From Michelin-starred chefs to the most famous cooking and gastronomy blogs, we encourage you to find the recipe you like best, whether it's chicken, turkey, quail or other poultry. Delicious!

One of the keys provided by these chefs to avoid waste is to make a good purchasing plan, based on acquiring what is going to be prepared without seeking to store unnecessary products in the fridge, which are often doomed to spoil.

Practical advice.

Another important aspect is to fill our shopping basket with versatile products, and what do we mean by this term? A good example would be roast chicken, which allows us, as well as eating it initially with a good salad, to later make croquettes, as Alfonso López of Recipes de Rechupete. Or this roast chicken broth, from Marta Miranda of the specialised website Crokpotting. 

At Avianza, we want to encourage the use of leftover poultry, and for this reason we share with you several proposals for delicious and healthy recipes using that leftover poultry meat that you can make the most of.

9 dishes with leftover roast chicken

From The Foodie bring us these tips on how to "recycle the leftovers of the classic Sunday roast", as the authors explain. From sandwiches, Moroccan empanadas, salads or broths.

Cooking to make the most of it: a whole chicken and three dishes - RTVE Cocina

In the programme Como Sapiens on RTVE they present a practical session on how to make the most (up to three dishes) of that whole chicken that you can buy at your market, and which is also sure to be a very economical proposal.

Turkey patties

On New Year's Eve or any other celebration, because turkey is a delicacy to enjoy all year round. But if you can also make the most of it with recipes such as these pies, even better. A proposal to make with the little ones, as avoiding waste, as well as saving, shows values of sustainability and commitment that the new generations are increasingly aware of.
