1. Keeping Green-Leafy Vegetables Fresh

Green-leafy vegetables can maintain their freshness by washing them in cold water, allot time for them to dry, and then put them into portion size plastic bags. Blow the bag for air, and seal it.

2. Scooping Egg Shells

Sometimes, tiny egg shells break into your bowl of eggs. Get a piece of egg shell half and use it in scooping those smaller egg shells.

3. Zucchini Noodles

If you want to eat pasta but worried about fats and calories, then substitute it with zucchini noodles or zoodles. This is a healthy substitute.

4. Instead of Sugar, Use Applesauce

Unsweetened applesauce is a good and healthy substitute for sugar.

5. Cut Some Foods through Floss

If you have soft food items like cheese and cakes, use a fresh piece of dental floss for slicing them. Be sure to use unscented floss.

6. Only Cook Fresh Eggs

Putting eggs in water is one way of knowing their level of freshness. Eggs that sink to the bottom are fresh. An egg that slightly rises isn't that fresh anymore, but it can still be eaten. Avoid eating egg that floats to the top since it's no longer fresh.

7. Preserve Herbs

Preserve some of your herbs. Put them in an ice cube tray with olive oil, and put the tray in the freezer.

8. Make Yogurt Popsicles

Buy the yogurt in small packs and poke a small hole in each one with a popsicle stick. Then, put them in the freezer.

9. Don't Allow Boiling Water to Overflow

When boiling water overflows, it will surely create mess. Put a wooden spoon on top of the pot to prevent overflowing.

10. How to Peel Ginger
