Chop Tomatoes with Kitchen Shears for Less Mess [Kitchen Hacks]

Chopping fresh or canned tomatoes with a knife on a cutting board works great but can leave a mess afterward with tomato juice and seeds to clean up. Real Simple magazine's web site suggests using kitchen shears to cut tomatoes directly into a measuring cup or other vessel to avoid the mess.

We've previously covered how to mince herbs using a similar method. When your marinara sauce is simmering mince your basil and add it at the end just before serving for the strongest basil flavor.
