Pro tip! Pre-cut your kale. Eat greens all week.
Do you ever buy greens from the farmers market (or grocery) and then let them hang out in the fridge, turning yellow and losing nutrients until they're no good - b/c it takes too much time to wash...
-
LezEngel Yes, this is a great way to save greens and make life easier! I like to add a paper towel to the bag to absorb any excess moisture that may hasten their demise.

MargaretG @LezEngel thank you! As you can see moisture is an issue for mine so thanks for the tip!!

Spelt bread with avocado is such a filling breakfast - with no sugar
I keep trying to avoid sugar for breakfast so I don't get hungry as quickly. Spelt bread does the trick - so hearty and flavorful. I keep it in the freezer so it doesn't go bad, and toasts up perfe...

mrscorco @Rachna any brand you like in particular?! I'd like to try some!

DietID_TeamDietitians I usually get Ezekiel spelt from the grocery store when I can't get to the farmers market. Otherwise, a guy sells the best loaves at the market- no label or anything so I don't think he has a brand...

NehaNBB I love slow cooking meat in tomato juice. My mother also used to use it on skin - mixed with honey. It's supposed to keep your skin 'glowing' =)
-
SpiceySpice +1 on the bloody mary mix!
I save my veggie scraps in a bag in the freezer, and when I have a couple bags full I make stock, and then compost the scraps.
It's great having homemade stock frozen for when I want to make soup. Plus it's free, easy, and gives those scraps a second life! #nofoodwaste

Knowing your tenderloin
Salmon tenderloin is the hard to get at meat along the spines of salmon. Often wasted, it's actually easily scooped off the spine with a spoon, and then sautéed the same way you would sautée chicke...
