1. Use a Ziploc Bag for Mess-Free Breading

Place the meat or vegetables in a Ziploc bag with the breading mixture, seal the bag, and shake it gently. This ensures an even coating without creating a mess on your countertop.

2. Freeze Fresh Herbs in Olive Oil

Extend the life of fresh herbs by chopping them and mixing them with olive oil in an ice cube tray. Freeze them for later use in soups, stews, or sautés.

3. Use a Muffin Tin for Taco Shells

Flip a muffin tin upside down, place tortillas in between the cups, and bake them in the oven to create crispy taco shells. Perfect for taco nights!

4. Clean Your Blender with Soap and Water

To quickly clean your blender, fill it halfway with warm water, add a few drops of dish soap, and blend for a few seconds. Rinse thoroughly for a sparkling clean blender.
