Make your own homemade TV dinners for the freezer using leftovers from dinner - the 3 section reusable plastic containers work well. A protein, vegetable & starch complete a healthy meal. If all 3 sections aren't full, wait for leftovers from another meal to complete the frozen dinner container. To create a delicious "new" dinner, pop frozen sections out onto a dinner plate and reheat in the microwave. NEVER reheat in plastic containers.

When defrosting meat, use an ice cream container, the plastic ones the ice cream comes in from the store, there will be no leakage onto the fridge shelves. Also can use with any food being defrosted, but is great for meats as it contains the blood.

When breading fish or meat, sprinkle the crumbs onto the paper it came in and dip into it. Then toss the paper out. No clean up. And if you're using egg, drop the egg into the plastic bag the fish/meat came in, whisk it right in the bag, then toss out. Again, no clean up.

To save fresh ginger root for a long time: peel the root, put into a lidded jar, cover with dry sherry. Put in refrigerator after cutting into smaller chunks. The ginger will stay fresh and you'll have ginger flavored sherry to use in cooking.
