Hidden Dirt In Your Kitchen

You love to clean. Every room in your house sparkles and shines, especially the kitchen.

But we have some bad news.

Unfortunately, dirt and germs hide in the unlikeliest of places in your kitchen.

Since a clean and healthy kitchen is important to you, we’ve compiled a list of three places where dirt and grime may be hiding.

1) Handles, Knobs and Light Switches — Your family touches these surfaces multiple times a day. And there’s no way to know how clean all of those hands are. We recommend cleaning these spots with a disinfecting product every week.

2) Refrigerator Drawers — If you store raw meat in the fridge, keep it in the original container and clean up any spills right away. Also, empty out and wash refrigerator drawers, including produce compartments.

3) Kitchen Sink — Everything goes into the kitchen sink, making it a haven for germs. Each time you scrape food off of plates or toss leftovers into the disposal, it spreads germs. Clean the sink with a disinfecting product once or twice a week for the best results.

Your kitchen is a gathering place for friends and family. Give your kitchen the TLC it deserves so it’s clean and ready for meal prep.

3 Cooking Hacks That’ll Make Your Life Easier

How would you like to save time in the kitchen?

You can!

Use these easy kitchen hacks and wow your friends and family with your cooking prowess.

Freeze The Cheese

Hate shredding room temperature cheese? Put soft cheese in the freezer for a few minutes until it firms up. Then shredding a block of cheese will be a breeze.

Roast Nuts In Large Batches

Toasted nuts add layers of flavor to any recipe. They’re tasty on their own or as part of a meal. But let’s be honest. Toasting one cup of nuts for a single recipe takes too much time. Instead, roast a large batch of nuts and freeze the extras for later.

A Better Way To Prep

Butternut squash tastes amazing and is so versatile. But it’s annoying to peel and dice. There must be an easier way...and there is! Pop the entire squash in the microwave for about two minutes and it’ll be easier to work with.

We hope you use our simple kitchen hacks the next time you’re cooking. And, we’d love to hear what your favorite kitchen time-savers are!
