You know the drill - you're trying to eat healthy, you buy a bag of spinach to make salads and to cook, and then you use it once or twice, so the bag is open, but a couple days later when you go to finish it off... the lettuce is totally wilted.
This used to happen to me all the time when we bought big containers of spinach and I always hated wasting the end of the bag of spinach!
Buuut then I figured out the best hack that is going to change your life, I swear!
All you need is your bag of spinach and something you definitely already have in your home: a paper towel!
Just put the paper towel in the container or the bag once you open it for the first time. The towel will absorb the moisture and keep the spinach fresher for longer.
Generally, raw spinach only lasts about 5-7 days when kept in the refrigerator, but that is certainly not always the case just depending on how it is kept. But I swear, if you put the paper towel in the bag or container you will DEFINITELY get your 7 days!
