Make Your Own
•Try making your own dry mixes. For instance, make 2-3 extra blends in zip-lock bags when mixing dry ingredients for cornbread. Add the liquid ingredients when ready to use. This also avoids many additives and/or chemicals, plus you control the salt and fat.
•Measure dry ingredients, then wet ones so you have only one cup or measuring spoon to wash.
•Bottled salad dressings are a wonderful convenience, but, like everything else, there is a price. You not only pay more for the convenience, but you are at the mercy of the manufacturer as to ingredients, i.e. salt and chemicals. It is easy and quick to make your own simple vinaigrette or even French dressing.
