ROTATING RECIPE:

The golden rule in food storage is store what you eat and eat what you store.

These “Rotating Recipes” will help you eat what you store.

FISH TACO SAUCE

Here are the Items that you will rotate:

• MAYONNAISE
• LEMON JUICE
• CHIPOLTE PEPPERS

Here are some of our favorite recipes that use these ingredients:

Pesto Mayonnaise Sandwhich Spread

Cedar Plank Salmon

Chipolte Lime Marinade

LEMON JUICE: Fiesta Salad

Featured Item

LEMON JUICE

Why I store this time:

• Lemon juice is in a lot of recipes I make and while fresh squeezed juice is mighty tasty, it can become a pain to always have to buy a lemon. I keep a bottle of this in the fridge so I can always have lemon juice on hand when I need it.
• The commercially prepared stuff does not need to be refrigerated and can last up to 18 months unopened. Once opened it needs to be refrigerated and used within 9 months. However, I've used my open bottle a lot longer than that and it still tasted great. Just make sure it doesn't smell bad or have a funny color.
• One large bottle lasts me a whole year. I love when I only have to buy something once a year!

Homemade Item: CHIPOLTE RANCH DRESSING

Do you ever have a tiny bit of food left over from a recipe and are not sure what to do with it? You don’t want to through it out, but there is not quite enough to save? Well, try making some fun sauces with it.

I had a little adobo sauce left after a recipe and decided to make chipotle ranch sauce.
