Reusing Spice Containers

Recycle those bigger shaker bottles that spices come in. I reuse them and fill with cinnamon sugar or flour (for that quick shot you need to make great gravy).

It is so much handier to have one bottle to grab while I'm cooking than having to go to the pantry for the canister of flour. I also like to use them to make my own spice blends. This saves so much time when you're putting dinner together.

When I cook, I use salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder in everything! So I decided about two years ago to combine them all in an empty shaker. I just kind of eyeball it; shake it all up and then taste to see if I need to make any adjustments. It is so much easier using one shaker instead of four!
