I am sure everyone has a pair of kitchen shears just waiting to be used to their full potential! It is amazing how many things can be done with them and how much easier and safer it is to use them! Some of my favorites are:
1. Cut pizza- throw that old wheel away and use your shears! You can get right up to the edge of the pan with shears. And if you need to cut the pizza into pieces for a little one, it is much easier with shears!
2. Cut raw meat – Oh, so much easier than using a knife!! You can cut the pieces to size and not worry about the knife slipping.
3. Snip herbs and green onions.
4. Cut kids’ meals into bite-sized pieces.
5. Open packages. Trim box-tops off packages, if you save them for your school.
6. Cut tortillas in bite-sized pieces for homemade chips.
7. Chop cabbage, shred lettuce, and chop celery.
8. Cut bacon for bacon bits.
9. Cutting up marshmallows, dried fruit and nuts.
10. And the best thing- Kitchen shears can be thrown in the dishwasher to be cleaned and disinfected!
