    Awesome video. I appreciate you for showing us how you wash and prep all of your produce. I will definately watch the next video to see how you use them. Could you also show us how your husband makes his noodle soups?

    Quick tip: always use a pinch of salt for cauliflower & broccoli to remove bugs that might be in the florets. Also to simplify things i usually use my silicone coasters under my cutting board (i use 2). Great video. My household rarely use cauliflower & broccoli. Instead we eat loads of napa cabbage, green cabbage & bokchoy. My son loves to simply grab a few leaves to add to his instant noodles. Meanwhile i grab a few leaves to blanch, squeeze, chop & season it w/ soy sauce, garlic & green onion to eat w/ rice. This is my go to side dish when too lazy to think what to eat.

    If you pop the stem portion of the iceberg lettuce on the counter it will break away easily and take almost none of the leaf with it. Then break apart the head manually and wash each section intact. Shake off the water, ad a paper towel and put it in a bag to keep it fresh.

    Another awesome video Maddie and good food prep tips. I don’t usually buy iceberg lettuce due to the lack of nutrition and go for other types of lettuces instead. Love 🥰 the video and love 💞Maddie & ❤ Q.

    Watching you prep your fruit and veggies is always inspiring. I like the idea of seeing you buy a batch of groceries and see then what you make with it. Then those prepped containers of food are encouring to look at when you open the fridge.

    I feel you with the motivation! Produce prep is one of those things you know you need to do and are glad once you do it, but tiring thinking about it all the same. I’m psyching myself up for my farm box tomorrow after watching your video. 😊 Oh, and the iceberg lettuce takes me back to childhood. That’s all my mom bought. Now I need some iceberg! 🥹

    Two things about iceberg lettuce. First, it is more nutritious than you think. It got a bad rap in the '90's but if nothing else, it is very hydrating…full of water. Second, if you just rap the core on your countertop, it will come out without a knife and you won't have that rust developing prematurely. And I love iceberg lettuce. Even being crisp, it's easy to chew, and has a mild flavor that doesn't really need a dressing.

    Could you zest the lemons and limes either before or after juicing and somehow preserve the zest for later use? I know you can buy dried peel at the store, but I'm not sure how to best go about trying to dry or preserve it at home.

    I love your videos! Please share more of what you use for protein prep. And, I think I saw sourdough in your fridge? If so, would you be willing to do a video on how to do a sourdough starter and what you make from it? ❤
