August 19 is National Potato Day, and who loves potatoes more than the Brits?

Learn some fun and enlightening tips to make the most of your potatoes from the UK Food Waste campaign "Love Food Hate Waste".

We especially love the tips on green or sprouty spuds and freezing (for when you get too many "chips from the chippy" ;-) to make last minute meal prep that much easier!

Chef Partner Tip from Food Shift: Potato and Veggie Peel Chips
Did you know that fruit and veggie skin harbors the majority of vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber in a given piece of produce, making it too nourishing to waste!?

Watch the video above as Food Shift’s Culinary Director, Chef Jen, walks us through her go-to veggie skin chip recipe featuring potatoes!
