1. Grate Cold Butter I haven’t tried this little trick just yet, but I love the idea! Your stick of butter has to be close to frozen for it to work, and you must work fast to keep it from melting, but the grated butter is perfect for adding to flour before baking biscuits, scones, muffins, etc.. It

2. Scooping Up A Broken Shell It happens every time! I make eggs for breakfast just about every morning, and the brown organic eggs seem to break off into little pieces so much easier. Instead of fishing around with your finger to dig them out of your bowl (yeah, I do that), use one of the egg shell

3. Egg Freshness Test I eat too many eggs for them to ever go bad, but this sure is good to know. I got so excited when I saw this, I dug into my fridge to test it for myself. My eggs seemed to be 4-6 days old — good enough! You’re probably wondering how this works, and yes, there is some science be

4. Freeze Ice Pops The Smart Way I don’t know about you, but I’ve always called these things Otter Pops! I grew up with a freezer full of them in the summer. I especially loved the jumbo ones I could get from the ice cream truck that circled my neighborhood. Our scissors were always sticky with melt

I hate wasting food but sometimes it’s hard to prevent, especially when a recipe calls for half a cup, but the cans are sold in 16 ounce servings (like tomato paste). Essentially you could do this with homemade sauces as well as anything canned that you d

Smash, shake, and separate! I’ve also seen this done with two ceramic bowls placed on top of each other (ri

12. A Better Way To Cut Watermelon This tip will come in handy this summer! Watermelon is my go-to fruit, especially when I’m craving something sweet. It’s hard to believe this stuff is good for you. I like to cut it up into small pieces and store it in a large tupperware bowl so it’s easy to grab a

14. Make Your Own Yogurt Pops A sweet frozen treat that you don’t have to feel guilty about! Unfortunately, I don’t think the Yoplait brand would work because of the way their containers are shaped (could be hard to get them out once frozen), but most other individual yogurts with a soft top that wi

17. Flossing Food Whether you want perfectly even layers of cake or to cut delicate cheese with ease, unscented dental floss can help you pull it off! Did you know there is a such thing as a cheese wire? It’s basically a knife made for crumbly soft cheese, but floss will ultimately give you the same

20. Parchment Paper To The Rescue Just in case you were wondering, parchment paper is different than wax paper (I had to Google it because they seemed like the same thing to me). Apparently, parchment paper will hold up to the heat of the oven, while wax paper won’t. A lot of you probably already do
