Tips: Money Saving Tips

  • Before you juice a lemon, lime or orange grate off the outermost part of the rind and freeze in a zipper food storage bag. When a recipe calls for zest, just pull it from the freezer. FabulousFoods.com new (Added: 25-Aug-2003)
  • Buy ground beef in bulk, and then separate it into 1-pound portions and freeze. Brown the ground beef first before freezing; then you can just pull it out of the freezer to use for tacos or anything else that's easy. Chris, Pleasant Hill, CA new (Added: 25-Aug-2003)
  • To get the last bit of shortening from the can, fill with boiling water and let cool. The shortening will rise to the top and harden, when it can be easily removed. FabulousFoods.com new (Added: 25-Aug-2003)

  • Buy large packages of ground round (5 lbs. or more) on sale and boils most of it, adding chopped onions and a few carrots and garlic powder to the liquid, (or whatever else is on hand). After it's cooked, usually about an hour, drain the beef and runs it through the food processor a little at a time to break it up, leaving in the carrots and onions. Bag in small freezer bags to have the perfect amount for tacos, sloppy joes, spaghetti, or any other recipes that calls for ground beef. The bags store stacked flat I the freezer.
