As a busy blogging, home schooling mom and wife, life rarely slows down around here. If you are like me, you are constantly looking for ways to spend less time doing the job. If you are looking for some extra time-saving, money-saving practical tips then you’ll want to visit every Tuesday where I have partnered with Good Deal Mama, Jessica’s Coupons, and Rose Knows Coupons (AKA: The Tipsters!) to share our own individual tips that will either help you save time or money, or hopefully even both!
Today’s tip is brought to you by Jessica!
These are great for using up the rest of your Summer herbs or if you struggle to keep an herb plant alive! 😉
“I love these- they are such a time saver/money saver in the kitchen and a hit with everyone in the family!”
What you will need:
- Fresh Herbs (of choice)
- Olive Oil
- Ice Cube Tray (I used these)
Step One:
Fill each section of the ice cube tray about 50-75% full with your fresh herbs of choice. You can do a single herb, or mix if you like.
Step Two:
Next top each section with olive oil (repeat). (I actually prefer to fill it about 50%)
Step Three:
Freeze (the cubes should set in 1-2 hours)
Once they have set, I pop them out of the ice cube tray and into a freezer bag. Then I just grab cubes as needed.
You can add these to your favorite recipes. I add mine to angel hair pasta. It smells great and taste wonderful. Very light. A great alternative to Red Sauce. Plus super frugal too! You could also saute shrimp or chicken…so many ideas!
