Last week I told you guys what I do with just a handful of leftover cereal, and this week I wanted to show you what I do with the leftover cereal bags. About ten years ago, I found a brand new box of wax paper sheets at a yard sale for a $0.25. A quarter, you guys! It had over 1,000 sheets in the box. I just ran out of them this year. It was a sad, sad day at my house.
The main reason that I used those sheets, was to separate my hamburger patties when I put them into freezer bags each time I had extras. They won’t stick together and create a huge clump of raw hamburger meat this way. Otherwise, what was the point of spending all that time patty-ing them out?
Every time I empty one of our cereal boxes, I save the liner.
I just open the entire thing up….
Like so.
Cut it in half……
Again, and again, and again, until I get the size I want.
They make perfect separators for my hamburger patties. And they are FREE. Which is one of my favorite words.
