Ziplock Bag Tip!

Are you having trouble putting away your food in ziplocks, without spilling or splashing your food all over!? Here is a handy tip!

Place (fold over) a ziplock bag inside of a plastic container (of course, different sizes since the bags are different sizes)! The container will hold the bag up so you can put it away without splashes or spills! Simple and easy!

I found this tip in a book that I am reading! "Fix, Freeze, Feast"!
