Have you ever had to use Tomato Paste in a recipe?
AND the recipe only calls for a tablespoon or two?
Here's what to do with the rest of the can...
Measure 1 TBS of Tomato Paste and spoon into an ice cube tray and FREEZE.
Once frozen, remove and place in a freezer safe bag.
The next time you need tomato paste, just reach into your freezer and remove.

What a great idea- I always felt so guilty with what to do with the rest of it. sandie

You are a genius! Buying a can of tomato paste, using a tablespoon, and then throwing the rest out drives me crazy! Thanks!

Good idea! Did you know tomato paste comes in a tube? I saw it on Rachel Ray one day. Don't know how expensive it is, but it would be convenient.
