Lemons

I LOVE lemons... Lemon water, lemon in smoothies, lemon smells, and lemon pie! And did you know that lemons love you too (though the pie one may be less than beneficial)! As I have looked into lemons, I am amazed at all they do. They are great for cleaning, cooking, drinking, etc. Here are some pictures from the internet that show how they are good for you, and I have listed some ways to use them that can be beneficial and yummy.

~Lemon water -- tastes great, a change from plain water!
~Warm water with lemon juice and hot sauce = liver cleanse you can do once a day (1/4 c water, splash lemon, and 3 drops hot sauce like tabasco)
~Squeeze juice over chicken or fish with some olive oil and seasonings in a pan, through in the slices you used and cover the pan as it cooks. Very tender meat with a zesty flavor.
~Wipe out a wooden salad bowl with a slice of lemon to add flavor to your salad while cleaning the grains of the bowl.
~Squeeze over salad with some olive oil and vinegar and a sprinkle of italian seasoning for an amazing and healthy dressing.
~Squeeze into your plain yogurt when adding fruit for a zesty addition
~Juice lemons and freeze into ice cube trays. Stick one in your water with regular ice! You can get the small water bottle ice cube trays to have on the go, too.
