Plan a leftovers meal: If you have any ingredients left to make a sort of smorgasbord, or if you prepared a bigger portion and saved it, or if you brought home any restaurant leftovers, plan some time to eat them.
Look for what you still have at home: Before adding an ingredient to your list, have a quick look at your fridge, freezer, and cupboards to avoid buying something you already have. You can do this once a week, just so you know what you have there. Look for ingredients that are about to go bad and incorporate recipes including these into your planning.
Stay away from oversized plates: Making sure your plate is the right size can help trick you into eating smaller portions and wasting less food.
