Imperfect Foods Toasted Sesame Ginger Salad Kit, $4.29 via Imperfect Foods
I usually mix up my own simple salads and dressings, but decided to give Imperfect Foods Salad Kits a try.
The Toasted Sesame Ginger Salad consists of chopped cabbage and kale, daikon radish, pepitas, cashews, and a bright ginger dressing. I loved the dressing! Overall this is a nice salad kit that makes a quick side. I would definitely add more veggies or protein to turn this into a meal salad, but the trouble is the dressing is just perfect (if not slightly short) for the amount in the bag, So if you add anything else, it won’t be appropriately dressed.
Ranking: 3/4 - it’s good

Izze drinks take me back to the days of working at Starbucks where I could use my employee discount on the RTD (ready to drink) case and every now and again I'd grab an Izze. If you want an alternative to pop/soda but don't want to go as far as flavored sparkling water, try Izze drinks. They are sparkling juice beverages made without added sugar, preservatives, or any other junk.

Having a good kitchen knife that is well cared for can make the difference between an enjoyable cooking experience and literally a dangerous one. Did you know that a dull knife can actually be more dangerous than a sharp one? You see, when a knife is dull you tend to push harder to force it through whatever you’re cutting and you are far more likely to lose control and cause injury that way. On the other hand, a quality and appropriately sharp knife will glide through efficiently and safely. Now you know!
A good knife can literally last a lifetime where as a cheap one will not perform well to begin with and will need replaced more often. Bearing that in mind.... here are some top knife choices available on Amazon. Knives We Own & Love:Victorinox Swiss Army Fibrox Pro 8” Chef’s Knife

What are Fire Crackers?
Fire Crackers are a super simple recipe that make an addictive snack or appetizer and are a fun way to spice up (literally) some plain saltines! Follow along as I show step by step how to make this recipe, which I quartered.
How to Make Fire Crackers:
1. Measure out a quarter cup of oil. I use olive oil. I had this evoo on hand.
2. Add 1/4 ounce of Ranch Dressing Mix. I had a Tuscan Valley Ranch Mix from Aldi via Instacart.
3. Next add 1/2 Tablespoon of crushed red pepper flakes and 1/8 teaspoon of garlic powder.
4. Whisk it up with your baby whisk!
5. Next take a sleeve of saltines and stand them up in an airtight container. I had a leftover Thai Takeout container. Then drizzle the olive oil spice mix over all the crackers.
6. Put the lid on securely and turn the container upside down. Gently shake it side to side and flip it back and forth every 5 minutes or so over 20 minutes, just to try to get the crackers evenly coated.
7. One commenter suggested baking the crackers in an oven at 250 degrees F for 10-20 minutes (flipping once) to seal in flavor and help them last longer. So I gave that a go!
Here is the delicious end result:As Seen In This Post:
