Avoid Bringing Home Plastic-bagged Items.

  • Make your own bread, pita bread, and hamburger buns.  It takes about four hours from start to finish to make one loaf of bread (or four!) and of that four hours, only about one hour total is spent actually mixing, kneading, or putting it in the oven.  Mix the dough and let rise, set your alarm and go do something else.
  • Make your own corn and flour tortillas.  Once you’ve tasted homemade, you won’t want the packaged stuff.  I splurged and bought a tortillas press for the corn tortillas (necessary gadget to be successful and fast), and just roll out the flour tortillas on my counter.
  • Avoid buying plastic tubs by avoiding yogurt, margarine, and sour cream.  You can easily make your own sour cream in minutes for about half the price.  Yogurt takes a few days in a warm place but lasts a month or more in the refrigerator, and is the starter for your next batch.
  • Avoid buying salad dressings and mayonnaise in plastic bottles.  Some nice salad dressings can be found in glass bottles, or you can mix your own.  Mayonnaise is easily made in a blender with oil, egg, a dash of vinegar or lemon juice, and salt.
  • Skip the shampoo bottles altogether.  I use a shampoo bar, which can be found in the health-food aisles of some stores or online for about $10.  I use it almost daily and since January have only worn it down about halfway, so a real money saver, and so good for the environment too.
  •  Don’t buy frozen fruits and veggies sealed in plastic bags.  Honestly, since I started my “no-plastic” crusade, I’ve been using fresh veggies and fruits, plus we grow some of our own which can be frozen in quart jars or plastic containers. (I’m not against plastic, I’m against the throw-away plastic!)
  • Don’t accept plastic lids and straws at your favorite fast-food joint.  This really only works when you go inside, not the drive-up window, so you might want to stop using the drive-up and spend a couple of minutes more on your feet – which is good for you.  Just don’t fill it up all the way, and drink from the glass the way we used to in the olden days.  If you’re going back to the car, drink the liquid down a bit so you won’t spill it in the car.  I’ve been doing this since January and haven’t spilled yet.
  • Just try to make good choices whenever you can.  All of my ideas are doable.
