7 Smart tips to eat healthy on a budget
#1 Store your lettuce with a dry paper towel.
Lettuce leaves start seeping water as soon as they’re harvested. At the same time, bacteria and mold start growing which make lettuce slimy and inedible.
To avoid both of these issues, wash your lettuce as soon as you get home from the grocery store. Dry it in a salad spinner or by blotting it with paper towels. Once the leaves are dry, store them in an air-tight container along with a dry paper towel which will wick away moisture.
Whenever the paper towel gets saturated, switch it out with a dry one.
