Well here it goes.
I freeze bits of tomatoes throughout the year in a ziploc bag in the freezer. And when chili time comes around I throw them in the mix.
This is a $$ saver. To some its revolutionary. To others not so much - you've been doing this for years. I just want to make sure you are all informed.
Stephen Grande and I share a passion for not wasting food and this is one of the small ways we avoid waste.
So, when you have a tomato sitting on your counter about to go bad, dice it up and throw it in the freezer.
This is also a great practice for vegetables, onions, etc. Makes for great vegetable soup!
Such a great tip!!
ReplyDeletehuh. Didn't know you just freeze tomatoes like that. I'll remember that when the tomatoes start rolling in.
ReplyDeleteMy mom used to keep a container in the freezer and she would put leftover veggies in there and when it was full, she would make vegetables soup. I should start doing that.
