How about making frozen Olive Oil/Herb cubes? — 

Turmeric Apple Chips

Ingredients:
1 organic Red Delicious apple
Ground turmeric (http://is.gd/UpnFZl), to taste
Ground cinnamon, to taste
Powdered ginger, to taste
1 tsp fresh lemon juice

Prep time: 10 minutes | Cook time: 1 1/2 hour
Servings: 4 servings

Directions

*For best results use a mandolin to get uniform thickness of slices.

Preheat the oven to 225 degrees Fahrenheit and line two-three baking sheets with parchment paper.

Wash the apple and then pat it dry.

Cut off the end of the apple, and then start slicing thin rings with the seeds in the center of each ring. (They will fall out, don’t worry.) You may need to adjust the setting after a few test slices in order to get the right thickness. I prefer mine pretty thin.

In a bowl, coat the slices in lemon juice to preserve them before baking. This also adds a nice tartness.

Lay out the apple rings in a single, non-overlapping layer on the baking sheet. I was able to cover 3 baking sheets.

Lightly dash each apple with the ground turmeric, cinnamon, and ginger on one side only.

Bake for about an hour and a half, turning over once halfway through.

*The apples may still feel slightly flimsy when you take them out but they will crisp up once they cool. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.

Sweet potato crisps!

Oven to 400 degrees. Slice a large sweet potato with mandolin slicer...thin blade. Spread on cookie sheet and drizzle with melted coconut oil. Season as you like (I did sea salt, TJ's 21 spice mix, and smoked paprika). Roast until crispy about 15 - 20 min, stir frequently.

How to properly boil eggs.

Directions -

1) Put the eggs in the pot and cover them with cold water, only about an inch overhead.

2) Put them on the stove and turn it on medium high heat.

3) As SOON as that water starts to boil (and I mean boil, not just a few bubble here and there), turn the stove off and cover them.

4) Set the timer for 10 minutes.

5) When the timer goes off, remove the eggs from the pot and put them in cold water.

6) Let them sit for about 5-10 minutes and then dig in.

Of course, if you don’t want them right away, just store them in the fridge, but try to use them within a few days as they go bad faster than uncooked eggs.
