. . Have you ever thought about making homemade peanut butter ? I was standing in the natural foods aisle at my local grocery store the other day, bribing my children to behave themselves with some dried apricots. I can totally make this at home with a food processor. Add peanuts to a rimmed baking sheet or jelly roll pan.

I love glass containers for food storage at home, largely because they are see-through. Food that’s visible is food that’s less likely to go to waste! And since I’m gonna eat my food pretty promptly, I don’t care that metal containers are opaque. But for lunches, I love metal containers.

I made a batch of granola This is not unique or creative, I know…but homemade granola IS pretty cheap, and it doesn’t take long to make either. meaning, “no stirring while baking” You do have to stir it initially in the mixing bowl!

Do you bake it first? E I do bake it first! If you have a chest freezer or other non-defrosting freezer, homemade bread can stay fresh for several months in its frozen state. The repeated defrosting cycles tend to cause freezer burn on foods pretty quickly, so I try not to keep things in my kitchen freezer for long at all.

When you are at work, it is very easy to spend too much money on food. Many times offices are located close to coffee shops, fast food joints, and more. Most of this easily accessible food is not good for you, and it is expensive to boot. Many offices have refrigerators in break rooms where you can store food.
