Instant Pot Lasagne

By Judy

Lasagne on plate with broccoli I stopped making traditional lasagne once the kids moved out because all the recipes I tried made far too much. This is enough for dinner and to freeze for the future. The noodles cook in the sauce. I am not a fan of no-boil noodles, so this saves a step for me. This makes enough for 6 servings.

Reusing Food Containers

By 15mhhm15

Two recycled food containers with leftover soup stored inside.My favorite use out of these containers are when I share food with family or friends. Instead of putting the food to transport in a Tupperware and collecting the Tupperware back, this works better because my family/friend does not have to give these containers back.

A woman walked into the kitchen to find her husband stalking around with a fly swatter. "What are you doing/" she asked.

"Hunting Flies" he responded.

"Oh!, Killing any?" she asked.

"Yep, 3 males and 2 females", he replied.

Intrigued, she asked. "How can you tell?"

He responded, "3 were on beer cans and 2 were on the phones."
