Remember how I was keeping an eye out for a more attractive, yet still functional solution to my dining room recycling needs?Meet my "new" Goodwill recycling basket. It was too much money at $6.99, but it's the perfect size and essentially inoffensive.I had set aside two almost completely eaten bags of tortilla chips to use at a later date. I cooked black bean chili last night, and stuck the chips onto a baking sheet to crisp them up. For too long. Bad burnt oil smell. Oh well, at least I tried.
Good effort on the tortilla chips! I can see me doing that.
What I do with my crumbs and remnants of tortilla chips, when they're too little to dip, is I pour them into a bowl and pour salsa over them and eat them with a spoon like cereal. Weird, I know. 😉
Tracy, I do the same thing with scrappy crumbs of anything. For chips I love, I will put cheese on top and microwave for 15 sec or so. Same thing for snack crackers. Yes, I get a spoon and eat them from the bowl. Why waste a calorie I can apply to my body?
Love that basket, Katy! Looks great in the dining room.
Ooh, that IS a pretty recycling container.
I wish my ugly yellow bin didn't look quite so ugly on my deck.
