These tender-baked oatmeal cups are essentially muffins but flourless. The batter includes oats along with protein-rich ingredients like milk and peanut butter to make a nutritious bite just like the oatmeal you’d make at home.⁠⠀

Buying fresh herbs in the Winter & not sure how to

Buying fresh herbs in the Winter & not sure how to store them to make sure they keep longer?! I’ve put together my top 4 tips for storing fresh herbs:⁠⠀
⁠⠀
-Soft herbs like parsley, basil, cilantro and dill have ‘soft’ stems so store them like you would fresh flowers. For parsley, cilantro and dill, cut about 1 inch off the stems, place in a jar with water, cover with a plastic produce or ziploc bag and store in the fridge. Keep in the fridge and replace the water every couple of days. These can last about 2 weeks so when ready to use, take the amount you need and wash!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
-Basil is a bit of a tricky one as it’s very delicate. If purchased from the grocery store, it’s likely grown in a greenhouse and comes already packaged. I usually leave this at room temperature and use it within a couple of days. If I’m cutting basil from the garden, I’m generally going to use it right away. However, you could follow the same instructions as the soft herbs BUT leave it in the water at room temperature.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
-Hard herbs like rosemary, thyme and sage store well when wrapped in a slightly damp paper towel, then wrapped in plastic and put in the fridge. They will last 1-2 weeks.⁠⠀
Mint is technically a hard herb because of its stem, however, I’ve found I can store either way mentioned above and it still does well.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
-And, the best way to clean any herbs that you’re using is to get a bowl of cool water and dunk the herbs a couple of times so that any dirt sinks to the bottom. Refresh the bowl with clean water before moving on to another herb.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Save this post so you don't forget these tips next time you buy fresh herbs!⁠⠀

Bowl meals are my faaaav and I always come back to this Peanut Chicken Power Bowl!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It’s so easy to mix and match ingredients so you can make these bowls from pretty much whatever you have in the fridge!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It's the peanut sauce that really pulls everything together in this bowl and you mightttt want to use it in other recipes too, it's THAT good!⁠⠀
