One thing we’ve gotten into the habit around here is having carrots and celery sticks cut up and ready to eat. Not only are they good, nutritious snacks but having them already cleaned makes them easy to add to recipes and for a quick salad. I take the celery and carrots, cut em up more and add them to one of those “bags” of salad they sell for $1.50 at our grocery store. A fast easy salad you can add to any meal.

Just clean the veggies, cut them into sticks and toss them in a big ziplock bag! They stay fresh for a long time! If the carrots start looking a bit sad just give them a quick wash, don’t dry them and put them back in the bag.
