30+ Life Tricks You Should Adopt Immediately (13 of 19)

Unlock the Full Potential of Your Microwave

If you’re pressed for time or cooking for a crowd, the microwave can be your best friend. However, the downside is most microwaves accommodate just one bowl or plate at a time on their rotating platform. When you’re short on time but need to warm up several items simultaneously, here’s a clever strategy you can employ.

Elevate a second dish inside your microwave by using a mason jar or any glass kitchenware. Remember, adding more to the microwave means you’ll need to extend the cooking time to ensure everything is evenly heated. So, take care to check the warmth of your food to avoid any chilly surprises!

Maximize Your Freezer Space Efficiently

Are you constantly restocking frozen vegetables? Is your freezer cluttered with numerous partially used bags of frozen goods from previous grocery runs? To tidy up your freezer and enhance its usability, employ this clever trick!

Invest in a set of robust paper clips or chip bag clamps for your freezer. As demonstrated in the image, this allows you to securely close your bags of frozen vegetables while hanging them up, thus keeping them away from the freezer’s base. This method not only prevents unintentional spills but also gives the illusion of a more spacious freezer.
