Cut up with confidence

There are heavy-duty days ahead in the kitchen, and these new plastic sheets will save you a little of the time and effort. Use them in place of a cutting board and there’s no need to wash up in between cutting the meat and chopping the vegetables -- just toss them away after each job is done. (But before you do, you can use them to transfer your handiwork to a bowl or pan.) Saran Disposable Cutting Sheets, package of 20, $3.49, at supermarkets or wherever Saran products are sold.
