When I have extra bananas that are going to get too ripe for eating, I use them to make banana bread or freeze them for smoothies or to just munch on. This is a recipe I got from a friend years ago, when I first found out I had Celiac disease. The bread comes out moist, but not too moist. It is great as a snack or served with ice cream for dessert.
Mom's Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
By Holly
These cookies are so good it's hard to find words to describe them! They're not too gooey, not to crisp, not too sweet... just right. My mother tweaked the recipe from a Martha Stewart magazine, adding a tablespoon of vanilla and playing with the measurements until it was both practical and perfect! I like to save making them for a cold winter day, and to eat a couple while they're still warm from the oven. But they taste great any time!
Getting the Most Out of Citrus Fruits
By attosa
My friend who is an avid cook showed me this the other day. Cut the very tips of your citrus fruits off before putting them into a juicer. Instead of catching some of the liquid in the closed ends, the juice will squirt all the way through. Flip over and do it again. Nothing goes to waste.

On shopping day before you freeze all your meat, you can marinate it using heavy duty freezer bags.

I make this rice dish often for my family because it's so easy and they love it! Just throw everything in the dish and bake, dinner is done! This makes a great side dish for the main course.

This is a hearty from-scratch stew. The perfect way to warm up on a cold fall or winter day. Many stores carry a 14 bean blend in their bulk foods section but you can also create your own using whatever dry beans you have on hand.
Freezing Green Onions for Later Use

There was a pretty good deal on onions at the farmers market, so I got a few bundles.
