How to keep cookies soft
Replace part (up to 1/2) of the sugar in your cookie recipe with honey. Honey is liquid at room temperature and never hardens. Experiment with the replacement portions, and once you've found the "sweet spot" so to speak, you'll have the soft cookies you've always dreamed of for your favorite cookie recipes!

Make salads more convenient to prepare
After a grocery store trip when you’re loaded up on lettuce and fresh veggies, take 15 minutes tear up the lettuce into salad sized pieces, wash/peel/chop/slice some of the veggies, and put into Tupperware or well-sealed baggies. You’ll be much more motivated to eat a healthy salad when all you have to do is open the Tupperware and assemble the salads from ingredients that have already been prepped. Just don’t forget about them for too long, as some veggies go bad faster after being chopped.

How to make homemade pizza sauce
To make your own pizza sauce from scratch, open a can of diced tomatoes (any brand will do), and pour into a blender. Blend until smooth, than spoon onto a pizza. It is fabulous, and costs less than 1/2 what sauce costs at the store!

How to keep basil fresh
To keep fresh basil, and other fresh herbs, at their best, don't put them in the refrigerator. Instead, keep them in a glass of water on your counter. They'll stay greener and fresher and make a nice decoration!

How to tell if your dried herbs are stale
Check to see if your dried herbs are still fresh by crushing a few and smelling them to see if they still have a good aroma. Also check to see if they still look green or if they have faded. Fresh herbs should always be green and have a strong aroma when opened.

How to reheat pizza to perfection
Here is a quick and easy tip that everyone ought to know! When reheating leftover pizza in the microwave, the crust often turns rock hard. To keep this problem from happening, wet the bottom of the cold pizza crust with water. Be generous but don't soak the crust. This water will create steam in the microwave and will give you pizza crust that is as soft and fresh as when the pizza was first baked!
