Best Ways To Reuse Leftover Fruits And Vegetable Peels

By Aanchal Mathur

It is often said that the maximum nutrition is contained in the peels of a fruit or vegetable. 

The nutrient density is said to actually decrease as we peel off the layers of the fruit. 

Here are some amazing ways to reuse leftover vegetable and fruit peels, and add health and taste to your diet. 

Soup it

If the bitter flavour of the peels not your cup of tea, soup it. The peels would actually get absorbed into the broth without our tastebuds even realising it. 

Chips

You can use potato peels for chips too! Add the peels to a baking tray, cover with parchment paper and drizzle some olive oil and salt on top. Bake till crisp. 

Detox Tea

Boil some water and add peels of fruits like pomegranate to it. You will get an instant herbal detox tea that will rejuvenate your system and also help detox it. 

Powder them

A popular hack amongst bloggers. You basically need to dry up the peels, powder them in a blender and simply add this powder to your salads, soups or any other dish.
