Odd Things to Freeze :-/


According to the Good Housekeeping Research Institute....

Either he or someone in his family had a VERY serious scare with cholesterol and he completly changed the way he cooked. On e example he gave was to remove corn from the cob and put the raw kernels through the juicer and then cook in that juice. And you get a really creamy corn soup without cream.
