I’ve been guilty of throwing away rotten herbs, old wine, yellowing kale and expired juice. Not any more…now I turn leftovers into FLAVOR CUBES. Before these foods spoil in your fridge, put them in an ice cube tray. They last 6 months in the freezer. Less waste – how cool.
Freezing water is for rookies.
There’s more you can do with ice cube trays.
Here are 8 FLAVOR CUBE ideas:
1. WINE
Simmer with pasta sauce for extra flavor
2. KALE
Puree kale leaves & stems w/ a little coconut water, freeze and add 3-4 to a smoothie
3. FRUIT JUICE
Add to sparkling water for a refreshing #supersoda
4. BREWED COFFEE
Add to iced coffee for a non-watered down AM buzz
5. TOMATO PASTE
Simmer in broth to make an excellent soup base
6. FRESH HERBS
Fill tray w/ herbs, top each cube with 1 tsp. olive oil, freeze and use cubes to sauté veggies
7. CANNED PUMPKIN
Add to hot oatmeal and top w/ pecans, pure maple syrup, and pumpkin spice #fallvibes
8. CANNED COCONUT MILK
Toss into stir-fries to make them more satisfying
FLAVOR CUBES are COOL.
pun intended.
