KitchenAid (a must have!)
Honestly, I make so much more food from scratch because of my KitchenAid - I use it at least once a week. I love making all sorts of breads (sandwich bread, flatbread, pizza dough), cookies, cakes, and cheesecake, pasta, + even ice cream! All of whic...
This is a splurge item but hands down my favorite and most used kitchen appliance. I do so much more baking and cooking when I can use the stand mixer instead of beating by hand. This may be an investment but ours has lasted 10 years so far and is us...
Stand Mixers for Baking & More
I just got this attachment for Christmas and LOVE it. This is so much easier than the traditional hand crank (we have one but never use as it's time consuming). I just made pasta with the attachment and it was so fast and easy. Excited to use this mo...
Stand Mixer Pasta Attachments - Fresh Pasta
My kids LOVE making ice cream at home and this attachment makes it so easy to do that! It becomes a fun activity to do with the kids, you know what ingredients are going into it, and you can't really beat fresh ice cream!

We have gone through so many oven mitts and these silicone ones are my favorite. Going on year 2 with them and they still work great. Can even hold heavy items, right out of the oven, for a couple of minutes without feeling the heat through the mitts...
BPA-Free Soft Silicone Oven Mitts - Heat Resistant
We bought this set years ago and it's still in perfect condition. We use them to bake lasagna, brownies, bread, casseroles, etc. Great set

Breakfast Items to make your mornings brighter
I am obsessed with the mini waffle maker. It's super easy to use and they have a variety of removable plates for purchase which makes these waffles fun for every season! Only downside is that the waffles are small and cook one at a time so it can tak...
Dash Mini Waffle Maker (with removable plates)
I LOVE my Ninja coffee maker. I have the Hot + Iced XL coffee maker and use it daily. You can set it up the night before on a timer and coffee will be brewed and ready for you (perfect for busy mornings). You can put a single cup right under it or us...
Coffee & Tea Makers
My husband got me the Opus coffee grinder for Christmas 2 years ago and I now use it daily! I've accidentally purchased whole beans in the past and had no way of grinding them. Now that I have this grinder, I mostly buy whole beans. The grinder is su...

General Cooking Items
This is another must have kitchen item. I bought the 6 quart version about 8 years ago and we use it regularly - mostly as a rice cooker but it makes the easiest and super creamy risotto! It's also a great option for cooking on super hot summer days ...

We have this set in teal but has a few color options. We use these spatulas for various baking and cooking tasks and has held up well over the past couple of years since we bought them.
Spatula
Stainless steel cookware can have a little bit of a learning curve, but so worth it. I bought this set 12 years ago and they are still in great condition despite being used daily in our house. Highly recommend this set
Cookware Sets
I love the versatility of this blender set: from single serve to multiple serving smoothies, blender pancakes, sauces, and even comes with a food processor bowl. Having one appliance with multiple options helps to save storage space
