Hi All!

Variety is the spice of life! Now what do you call it when you keep throwing stuff together and then spice it up? JAMBALAYA! Here's a pretty spicy mix for you for PASTA JAMBALAYA. This is a great go-anywhere recipe too if you're asked to bring a thing.

I've got some great kitchen tips below for complicated pan messes. Confession? Never on this recipe but I've been known to burn tow bottom of the pan or 2 cooking down pasta sauces I'm guilty of turning up the heat. Something that works for me?

So much to love about this new DishFish Scrubber: an ergonomic, easy-to-grip sponge that will clean everything in the kitchen... and then some! Lasts longer than normal sponges and stays clean and odor-free too! Dries quicker and naturally bacteria, mold, and mildew-resistant.

Cut through your tough messes with water like magic and no scratch!

Enjoy!

EVER HAVE A HECK OF A TIME GETTING BURNT FOOD FROM PANS?

To remove burnt food from a pot, try boiling water in it
until the food lifts off. Or sprinkle cleanser or a little
dishwashing detergent onto the bottom, add water to cover,
and let the pot soak for about an hour before scrubbing.
If the burn is really severe, you'll have to repeat this process
a couple of times. Or warm the pot in your oven; then remove
and place it on a piece of newspaper. Wearing rubber gloves,
spray all burned areas with oven cleaner and after 15 minutes
wash in hot, soapy water. Don't try oven cleaner with nonstick
pans, however--they require gentle cleaning. Wash them with
hot sudsy water and a sponge or soft plastic cleaning pad.
Avoid harsh abrasives and steal wool pads that can damage
the interior coating.
