Devices that make life easier and faster in the Kitchen

We use our nutribullet at least daily, making protein milkshakes/smoothies so the kids get more protein than they would otherwise, while feeling like they are actually having dessert. it handles frozen fruit and ice easily, as well as blending batte...

Shop nutribullet® Blenders & Smoothie Makers Online

I use this several times a day. Makes excellent toast, heats up leftovers beautifully, and is big enough to cook a frozen pizza easily. Cook 2 quiche, or even small batches of Christmas cookies, baked potatoes, etc. My kids use it almost as much as I do!

Elite Gourmet: Toaster Ovens

This pan almost never gets put away, we use it at least once a day, sometimes twice. Sturdy but lightweight, it works well for cooking rice, heating up small leftovers, veggies, etc. I got distracted and burned the frozen peas a couple of days ago, a...

P&P CHEF 2 Quart Sauce Pan with Lid

I love how easy it is to indoor grill or make waffles! And that the plates are removable and easy to clean makes it all worthwhile!

BLACK+DECKER 3-in-1 Waffle Iron WM2000SD

It's taken some time to learn the patience needed with stir frying in stainless steel, after always using teflon, but I'm glad I've worked on that. This pan has helped!

Cuisinart 12 Inch Skillet w/ Glass Cover

Eggs in a hurry can be a struggle with stainless steel. which is why I like to keep a small nonsticl pan on hand. And this one fits the bill nicely.

Cuisinart Chef's Classic 8-Inch Ceramic Skillet

My crock pot is a lifesaver. Throw in 2 whole chickens in the morning, or potatoes, carrots and corned beef (or a roast), and dinner's ready when you get home. Or my personal favorite, a pot of beans! This crock pot is reliable and consistent, and ea...

Crock-Pot 7-Qt Manual Slow Cooker, Charcoal

Kitchen tools and utensils

Everyday Kitchen items that simplify cooking.

This adjusted easily to my sink. It's sturdy, and the silverware cup drains rather than collecting puddles. I usually stack dishes on it for a minute before moving them to the countertop drying space, so most of the water drips into the sink, saving my countertop setup from extended wetness.

GSlife Small Stainless Steel Sink Dish Rack

I really like this mat! I've used it in the freezer so far, with the extra from a smoothie. Now I have little smoothie pyramids that the kids love! They popped out easily. I'm also using it to chill pre portioned coconut oil for swishing, which can t...

Non-Stick Silicone Baking Mat 15x11'' Red

I use the purple spatula all. the. time! It's sturdy, easy to clean, and my all-time favorite spatula. Never thought I'd actually have a ‘favorite spatula’ but I guess I've reached that stage of adulthood :) It's just the right size for oatmeal, smal...

Mad Hungry PKA 47578 4-Piece Silicone Spurtle Set

The perfect size for cutting up apples or slicing cheese, this cutting board is sturdy, and easy to use. Just rub a little butcher block conditioner in every month or so!

Bamboo Wooden Cutting Board for Kitchen

I really like this multi-size set of cutting boards. They'rer smooth, sturdy, and just need a little butcher block conditioner once a month or so. But with three sizes, you have what you need, without risking cross-contamination.

INDESTRUCTIBLE XL Bamboo Cutting Board Set of 3

This conditioner is super easy to use, a tiny bit goes a long way, and you don't have to use it after every wash, just once a month or so to protect your bamboo cutting boards.

Howard Butcher Block Conditioner & Mineral Oil 12oz

My favorite use for these is actually softening some butter, adding some honey and cinamon, then refirgerating until hard again. Pop it out and you have pretty butter to serve with baked sweet potatoes, or deliver with fresh bread to a sick friend or...

3PCS 3D Silicone Cake & Soap Molds Set

This timer is easy to use, just tap to turn on, twist to set, (or tap the 5,15, or 25 minute indicators) and tap to start, pause or stop. The beeps are loud enough that if you walked to the next room, you're still going to hear it without being compl...
