Grocery Ninja: Sweet 'Football' Olives

ICK?? I LOVE LOVE LOVE these olives.

And when I drink my Western martini, I let my Western husband eat them. THOSE guys put chills down my spine. urgh. But give me one of these anytime.

Now you make me want to drive the 30 miles I have to go to my Chinese grocery store to get more. MMMMM!

Keep a tumbler full of tasting spoons (I use regular flatware tablespoons) by the stove for quick access while cooking.

Pizza Hack: Broil Your Pies

I made this last night with very good results. Having a thin crust is imperative--because I didn't stretch it out enough, it was slightly doughy. Still delicious, though. AND quick.

my mom gets a bag of these every time we go to the asian supermarket and eats them like it's nothing. i've always found them so intimidating though...maybe i'll finally try a nibble.

When I buy a bag of lemons I zest them and then juice them all. I freeze the zest in little baggies and the juice I freeze in ice cube trays and then place in baggies in the freezer. It's very convenient for baking and cooking.

I make a large beef roast on Sunday and we eat leftovers at least twice after.

We always make extra - doubling every recipe - to have leftovers and save cooking time.

cut n freeze -- and buy frozen when you can -- especially veggies since they tend to be fresher frozen

If you eat plenty of salads, cut everything up and put into plastic storage containers as soon as you get home from the store.
