| Keep Vegetables in Brawny Produce Bags
|
|
If you have 99 Cents Only Stores in your area, they have Brawny produce bags, look just like the expensive ones. I am trying them now but always wrap my celery in foil, it keeps for weeks.

| Cheap Shower Caps for Food Covers

This may sound like a silly tip, but this proved to be very handy when we were camping with friends once, and I found that it works equally well at home.

| Reuse Produce Bags for Food Storage
|
|
The clear fruit and veggie bags that I get at the grocery store (the ones in the fresh produce section that are on a roll) make excellent freezer bags. Because they're thin, I double them up.

|
Putting an apple in a bag of potatoes will keep them from sprouting. Doesn't matter what kind of apple it is.

| Keeping Lettuce Fresh
|
|
I buy romaine lettuce when it is on sale, and have found a way to keep it fresh and crisp for up to 4 weeks. Wash your romaine and core it when you get home from the supermarket.

| Store Dry Goods in Refrigerator or Freezer
|
|
Store your legumes, flour, oatmeal and nuts in the fridge or freezer. They won't get weevils or insects, and will last longer.

|
|
Reuse cereal plastic bags to keep bread, buns, etc. fresh. They are very durable, too good to waste!

| Keeping Produce Fresh
|
|
Whenever I buy grapes, I always wash them right away for an easy snack to grab. To ensure they stay fresh as long as possible. I always stick a couple folded up paper towels in the bottom of the bowl or zip-lock bag.
