Take any portion of your eggcarton mix it in the blender dry it out and sprinkle it into the garden the worms love to eat cardboard broken down to their capacity to ingest it. Want to give the worms a real treat take your grass clippings and your egg carton put that in a blender dry it out mix it with a little soil and now you have great worm food or simply use the mix as a soft potting soil. Plants love to grow in this mixture soil is rejuvinated. After drying re-blend one more time dry and your mixture looks like peat moss and ready to use. Last step: (to keep your wife from harming you) go and buy her a new blender, keep the compost blender for your self.

You could throw the top portion into a compost pile and recycle it that way.

 Make a compost tumbler, they work faster.  Use an old trash can, or if you can get a hold of a 55 gallon barrel they work like a charm! You can build one, or just put it on its side and roll it around once a day. So much fun!

add the lid a little beanth your planted sprouts within your raised bed (if you are using a raised bed), it will biodegrade into the soil and the folds/creases/corners of the lid will provide space for microbials to grow, which will greatly enhance your soil. look up "lasana layer mulching", to have more detail explained.
