Works for me Wednesday

Ok - this week we are going to tackle that baked on, caked on, stuck on grease. Wasn't that a commercial from the 80's?

I think the worst pan to clean is a lasagna pan. My lasagna has spinach, zucchini, carrots, plum tomatoes....oh yeah...it's sticky. The trick? Save your dryer sheets. The used dryer sheets have a great chemical in them for breaking down grease. Place the sheet in the bottom of the pan & fill your greasy pan with hot water. Give it about an hour, and it will wipe out!

For those of us who can't use dryer sheets? Sorry, you get to use elbow grease!

That's a great tip. I'll try it. You can also use dryer sheets as a safe mosquito repellent. I guess the mosquitos are opposed to static cling too!
