Use Wide-Mouthed Funnel for Mess-Free Filling of Freezer Bags

funnel

Avoid getting food on the outside and stuck in the closure section of freezer bags. Use a wide-mouth funnel, available in the kitchenwares section of many stores.

Place the bag in a container such as a quart measuring cup. Open the top of bag and and enclose the edges around the bottom of wide-mouthed funnel.

Add food in desired amount through the funnel. Hold edges of bag in place as needed.
