When food is disposed in a landfill it rots and becomes a significant source of methane – a potent greenhouse gas with 21 times the global warming potential of carbon dioxide. 

That’s why we’ve teamed up with the wonderful Plant Power to create this delicious Sweet Potato Tempeh Pizza – an easy way to use up those forgotten ingredientswhether they be wilted or bruised. Super tasty and versatile, this healthy pizza is ideal for freezing portions to have when you really don’t feel like cooking, or to enjoy for your lunch the next day.

Note that the focus here is to cook what you already have in your fridge, so nothing goes to waste or to landfill. If you don’t have an onion, swap it for a courgette or a pepper, and sub the tender stem broccoli for kale, spinach or another leafy greenThis pizza is designed for loading, so go all out with the ingredients you already have – and prepare yourself for a fun, zero-waste night in!
