FRESH LEMONS

Here's my orginal blog post about lemons.

Ideas for what to do with lemons . . .

1. Juice and Freeze

• you can freeze in ice cube trays and drop them in a glass of water for lemon water
• freeze the juice in gatorade bottles or juice bottles
• freeze in canning jars

2. Make lemonade

• 4 cups of water, 1 cup lemon juice, sugar to taste (we use 1/2 cup of sugar)

3. Use the juice in marinades.

• There's a marinade packet by Weber that calls for 1/2 cup of lemon juice that we really like
• You can look up different marinades online also

4. Lemon meringue Pie

• I just found a recipe for this that I'm excited to try. I'll let you know how it goes. :)

5. You can add fresh squeezed lemon juice to flavor just about anything.

6. Make up a lemon curd or lemon syrup to make lemonade (Thanks Lori Roberts)

7. Freeze lemon slices and pull out for cleaning purposes as needed (Thanks Lori Roberts)

8. Cut up a bunch, flash freeze them, then drop in water as needed so you don't need ice. (Thanks Stacy Stoddard)
