Two Reusable foods

 Have you ever had a few bits of garlic or green onion that you just wanted to get your money out of? Well here is how to do just that.

➥Green onion

  You are cooking, and you are using green onion.  Well save those white parts.  You can take a glass of water. and throw them in there.  Make sure that the roots are facing down and the stem is above the water a bit.  After about a week you will have some good growth.  At this point you can go ahead and plant them in some dirt.  Good job!

➥Garlic

  Have some puny bits of garlic you just did not get to use? Throw them right in some moist potting soil. You will have a whole new bit of garlic.

Reusable foods: a growing list.
