THRIFTY CHEF

£3, 2 portions, 1 box

We are Thrifty Chef, an organisation reducing food waste and teaching essential cooking skills through simple and tasty box meals

Sustainable eating for all

Thrifty Chef is a meal kit service delivered through the container outside the student union that focuses on reducing food waste by using ingredients that are in surplus.


This service is in partnership with grocery stores or food suppliers to source ingredients that are nearing their expiration date but still safe to eat. The easy to make meal kits are designed to use these ingredients in creative and simple ways, and the service offers tips on how to store and use ingredients to extend their shelf life.


The goal of this service is to provide a more affordable and sustainable option for customers who are looking to reduce food waste and support environmentally friendly practices.
