We are all busy. If you are like me, you want to eat healthy foods and you might not have great ideas or tons of time to experiment. If you're timeblind like me you might have trouble with complicated meals and recipes. These are a few of the items i...
This is a big investment but worth it. I bought mine 15 years ago and use it 1-2 times a day! Smoothies, nut butters, soups, sauces, hummous, and really everything goes in here and comes out delicious.

No garlic press like this IKEA garlic press. So good. It's quick and effective and it makes the garlic into very tiny and juicy bits. Works with the garlic skin on so it saves the peeling trouble but mostly I love it because it makes garlic so small ...
KONCIS garlic press, stainless steel
These are useful for all sorts of things including making little soufflés and measuring out ingredients prior to cooking. I use mine often.

Ditch the plastics and grab a natural cutting board.

I have the $200 machine that pulls two shots. I use it every morning and it has paid for itself many times over at this point. The espresso is yum with a nice little foam. Feels like coffee shop coffee with yummy hand selected beans.
Coffee & Espresso | De'Longhi US
This thing can travel and it makes great espresso when you can’t pack your machine. You do need a pack of the small round filters to go with it.
AeroPress
This can make ice coffee froth! Oat and almond don’t froth as much as cow milk but it’s still delicious and feels like a coffeeshop drink when used with espresso shots.
SIMPLETASTE 4-in-1 Electric Milk Frother
I’m usually too busy to make fresh pasta but when I do I like to make it quick with this little wooden board.
Pasta Board Wood
Another pricey pick but I love these. My mama gave them to me and I love them. They’re pretty and work great. Nothing sticks and they’re super easy to clean.
Large Baking Sheet | Best Non-Stick & Non-Toxic Sheet Pan
I have this from another brand that I can't find here but this one looks similar. I love it for tagine and I use the bottom cast iron for oven bakes buns and anything else I would cook in a cast iron. This thing gets a lot of use in my house.

I love these tiny bowls and use them to put measured spices in when I'm cooking because I often don't get the timing right otherwise. They're cute and little and they work well for tiny things.
Bowls
A bit of a splurge but you can find them on sale. I gave one to my mom for a gift and she loves it so much. I use it when I visit her too and might get my own next time I invest in kitchenware.
