Cookie dough protein balls

We’re a six person household zeroing in on our choices to try and live more sustainably.  We’ve started with efforts to minimise our waste.

As we reduce plastic and packaging in the weekly shop, we make a lot more food, like yoghurt, from scratch, and so every little bit gets used up.

Along the way, a lot of new food habits and recipes are tried and tested, the ones that stick are shared here.

Meet the family, read the why.
