This morning, I was preparing an egg casserole for my husband and my cousin who was visiting from Lancaster County and thought it was the perfect time to share these life hacks.
I have a little clip thingy (I don't know the technical name) from a scarf or something I bought awhile back. I found it's perfect for hanging on the handle of my cupboard in the kitchen whenever I'm preparing a dish from a recipe card. I just clip the card to it and it's right in front of me the whole time. Before implementing this idea, I was constantly misplacing the recipe card in the midst of putting together a meal. It would end up underneath an ingredient container or something. And it always ended up dirty from messy hands or spills. Genius, don't you think?
When it came time to grease the casserole dish, I just reached inside the fridge and pulled out a Kerrygold wrapper. You see, every time I unwrapped a hunk of Kerrygold butter, I noticed there was a decent amount of butter left behind on the inside of the wrapper. Then it dawned on me: save it and use it to grease pans and casseroles. So that's what I do. And it works perfectly. How's that for a "green" life hack?
There you go. I'd love to hear some of your favorite life hacks. Please feel free to share them in the comments below.
Wishing you a magical day,
Love these--especially the butter hack. I am going to do it!
