What to Do with Lemona...

You can sweeten up Lemona's tart taste or let it go unchallenged. Lemona combines nicely with a wide variety of herbs, from thyme and dill to rosemary, parsley and mint. Here are some ways you can put Lemona to use:

Brighten up salad dressing. Substitute Lemona for half the vinegar in your favorite salad dressing for a zippy flavor.

Add flavor to roast poultry. When roasting a chicken or turkey, spritz the cavity with Lemona and a few sprigs of thyme.

Bake with fish. Coat fish with Lemona and sprinkle with paprika before baking.

Perk up steamed vegetables. Try adding a few sprays of Lemona to the pot when you steam your favorite green vegetable: It's amazing how they can perk up the flavor of string beans, broccoli or spinach.

Whip up a citrus-berry slush. Blend 2 cups ice cubes and 2 cups berries (your choice). Sweeten to taste with Lemona.
