Gather a team of friends or colleagues and put your cooking skills to the test as you transform forgotten fridge finds and pantry staples into something delicious. Expect teamwork, plenty of laughs, spot prizes throughout the evening, and a prize for the winning team.
We’ll provide the ingredients, and we’ll all enjoy a meal together at the end.
To help keep things running smoothly (and reduce waste!), please bring:
– 2 good knives and a couple of chopping boards per team.
– Your own picnic set (plates, cups, cutlery, etc.) to enjoy your meal from.
Tickets: $25 per table (4–5 people per group) includes all your under-bench staple ingredients. Booking is essential: https://compostcollective.org.nz/events/the-great-big-love-your-leftovers-cook-off-matakana/
Don’t have a team? Email Pip and we’ll try to connect you with one. [email protected]
This Love Food Hate Waste event is supported by Mahurangi Waste Busters and Auckland Council and delivered by Compost Collective, helping us bring our community together to reduce food waste and have fun doing it.
We can’t wait to see you there and cook up some leftover-loving goodness!
