Eating organic is expensive. That means we need to get creative when it comes to stretching our budget dollars. So we're always looking for ways to get the most out of what we buy.   DISCLOSURE: This post contains affiliate links, followed by (*affiliate link). An affiliate link identifies this site. If you make a purchase based on my recommendation, I may receive money. I only feature products that I own or that I am considering purchasing. All opinions presented are my own. None of your personal information is shared with me.     We buy organic potatoes, which means if we don't eat them fast enough, they often sprout.   So, the last time one of our potatoes sprouted, we decided to plant it to see what would happen.   What foods have you saved from the compost by planting them?
