Dirty Pan Cleaning Quick Tip

Hello Dearies!!

If you are anything like me, the thought of cleaning up your gigantic mess, after cooking your ridiculously delicious meal, is almost enough to deter you from cooking in the first place. Almost... Ok I admit it. There may have been one or more times this year (but Chris, it's only February!) that I have given my children PB and J's or cold turkey for dinner because I just REALLY didn't want to clean up after myself!!! 

Anyway! I do live to cook and for the times that I do, anything to help make cleaning up simpler is something is like to know about! This little trick comes courtesy of the one and only Mommy Dear! Oh the wisdom of my mother!

On this occasion I just finished frying up some Apple Organics turkey bacon. Apple Organics turkey bacon, to me, is the only turkey bacon worthy of actually being called bacon.

Yuck! What a mess in this "non-stick" pan!! Not to fear! Here is how to get rid of this mess with literally NO elbow grease! Even if you left the pan in your oven for 3 weeks! 😉

First you want to fill the pan with water and add a little dish soap.

Put it on the stove and turn the heat on high. Let it come to a boil, just keep an eye on it so it doesn't boil over. 



Let it boil for a few minutes and then VERY CAREFULLY dump it out in the sink. 




Then just take your dish rag and wipe it out! 


Wash and rinse and ta dah!!!


As my 5 year old son says "easy peasy lemon squeezy!" 

That's it! No more burnt in, dried on nasty stuff to scrub out! 



Well there is my little quick tip for today! I hope it helps you and encourages you to make more tasty food, because clean up isn't AS bad as it was before!

If you have any tips that make clean up easier, please comment below! I need all the help I can get!

Thanks for reading!

Until next time,
Christi
