It's About Me

Like Salad? Me too.

Like those premade bags with the mixed lettuce that’s precut into bite sized pieces? Me too.

Do they turn into a jellied mess before you finally eat them all?

Yeah. Mine too.

I hate that. Truly.

Announcing the Foodsaver that Saved Shelly’s Lettuce!!!

Too much? Okay, fine…

I love my Foodsaver. It does a lot more than just suck the air out of packages. It reseals chips, packages of brown sugar or marshmallows, and if you have the canisters you can keep your coffee fresh, marinate meat and keep leftovers fresh.

But when it comes to salad…it’s a life saver.

In these packages is the cheapest precut salad ever. Well, honestly I bought a head of iceberg. And a bunch of romaine. And, I actually cut it up myself.

And mixed it. It’s cheaper that way. And that’s how I do things.

To be fancy, I threw in some spinach.

Mixed up, then sealed. Tight. Big fluffy handfuls of salad shrunk down into tiny little packages.

I bagged some spinach by itself. It went from fluffy.

To lean and mean.

And best of all it will last long enough in the refrigerator drawer that we can eat it all before it turns into lettuce or spinach soup. I don’t like lettuce soup.

It’s nasty.

And wasteful.

And thrifty people don’t like being wasteful.

Seriously.

If you don’t have a Foodsaver, get one. You’ll fall in love too.
