Today is kitchen organization day at Works for Me Wednesday which is hosted by Rocks In My Dryer. I LOVE to be in my kitchen. I also love to cook, but I don't always have as much time as I would like. One thing that I always did before was alphabetize my spices. I know that works for a lot of people, but it just didn't really work for me. Here is what Works for Me instead.
These are not all of my spices, just my most used ones. Things like pepper, garlic powder, garlic salt, onion powder, cinnamon, etc. I label the top of the lids and put them in this container. It sits in my cabinet ready for when I need it. Nine times out of 10 when I need a spice it will be in this container, so all I have to do is pull the container out use what I need and put the container back. No searching, no knocking other bottles over, just quick and easy. It has saved me lots of time in the kitchen. I also have two other containers in my cabinet. One holds spice blends (we use these for grilling a lot) and the other holds everything else. Here is a pic of all of them in the cabinet.
