⚡️⚡️There were several power outages across our area yesterday, so don’t assume everything in your refrigerator or freezer is automatically safe once the power comes back on!
A closed refrigerator keeps food safe for about 4 hours. A full freezer can keep food safe for about 48 hours, and a half-full freezer for about 24 hours.
When in doubt, throw it out — foodborne illness is not worth the risk!

Harvesting Herbs for Healthy Eating

Harvesting Herbs for Healthy Eating

Herbs are a great addition to any garden or patio! They are pretty to look at and delicious to eat.

A rule to remember: Don’t overdo herbs in a dish. Use herbs for variety and accent only.

Are herbs nutritious? Herbs add flavor and negligible, if any, calories and other nutritional value; however, using herbs in cooking can offer some potential health benefits. Many people find they can cut down on the amount of salt and fat in their recipes when they add herbs. Using less sodium and less fat are good moves toward heart-healthy cooking.
