Below, I spill the beans on my kitchen lifesavers—those appliances that I rely on the most to whip up healthy, delicious meals in a flash. Plus, I've uncovered some easy-to-use kitchen gadgets that the whole family can enjoy.
These kitchen appliances are my daily superheroes, helping me achieve my goal of serving up home-cooked meals for my sports-loving family, especially my teens with their daily basketball practices.
This mixer holds a special place in my heart—it was one of the first kitchen appliances I bought when we moved into our new house years ago. It's a versatile workhorse, whipping up everything from tasty pancake mix and delicious muffins to banana bread, chocolate cake, homemade bread, and even Pavlova cake. Oh, and let's not forget the perfectly creamy mayonnaise!
No #2 - ChefRobot Smart Food Processor, All-In-One Multicooker and Cooking Robot with Guided Recipes
A thoughtful gift from friends on our anniversary, this smart food processor has been a game-changer. Easy to use, with instructions even the kids can follow, it's a kitchen essential. I turn to it for creating culinary delights like chicken tikka masala, risotto, various sauces, lasagna, Bolognese, beef stew, and the most delectable brownie cake.
Eating homemade is like a warm hug for your soul
Despite being a classic oven user, I've fallen in love with the Air Fryer. It cooks meat to perfection, makes frozen wedges as good as deep-fried (minus the guilt). From burgers and grilled chicken to pork chops, beef steak, and potato/vegetable chips, it's become a kitchen essential.
No #4 - Vacuum Sealer
For a family with a weekly menu, buying large cuts of meat is a common practice. My husband divides them into portions and freezes them, and the vacuum sealer makes it a breeze to store or freeze food in ready-to-cook portions.
No #5 - KitchenAid 3 Speed Ice Crushing Blender
My kids are big fans of morning smoothies and milkshakes, and this blender comes to the rescue daily. I play around with recipes, adapting them to each one's diet and preferences.
No #6 - KitchenAid Food Chopper
Ideal for everything from creating a chunky pico de gallo to a creamy hummus or a smooth sauce.
Serving up homestyle happiness is a breeze with a little help.
