1. A 16-piece nonstick cookware set so you can prepare all kinds of yummy meals at home and not have to waste god knows how long scraping food off the pots and pans. This is your sign to retire those old college hand-me-downs for a high-performing matching set.
2. A ceramic and aluminum Dutch oven that's just perfect for cooking up hearty stews, casseroles, soups, ravioli, and tons of other soul-warming dishes. Now that we're entering soup season, I can guarantee you'll be using this beauty at least once a week.
3. A nonstick jumbo sauté pan to prepare all the other meals, like one-pan roasted chicken and potatoes, veggie stir fry, pan-seared steak, and fettuccine alfredo...are you drooling at the possibilities yet? 🤤
4. A knife block set because these ombre-handled stainless steel blades look as sharp as they slice (see what I did there). Plus, the included knife block will keep them handily on display in your kitchen for all to admire.
5. A stainless-steel pineapple corer for anyone who loves this sweet fruit but simply cannot figure out how to cut it nice and neatly. This is the trick to getting perfect little rings: just twist, lift, and slice! 🍍
6. A silicone clip-on strainer if you'd rather not end up with half your pasta in the sink every. darn. time. Not only is this thing waaay easier to use (it clips directly onto the rim of the pot) but it's also way easier to store, too!
7. A nifty grater set that lets you shred directly into an attached measuring/storage container, which means you won't lose a single ounce of precious cheese to the countertop! As if that weren't practical enough, it even comes with two interchangeable stainless steel blades, one coarse and one fine. 🤩
8. A cutting board prep station so you can become the most efficient meal prepper in all the land. The board itself has measuring marks for even slicing and dicing, plus a built-in garlic grater — but wait! There's more! At the end of the board, you'll find a removable storage tray (it comes with four trays total). Simply chop, slide, and replace the tray for the next ingredient.
9. A two-piece silicone spatula set since a good quality spatula is basically your BFF in the kitchen — and you definitely need two BFFs in case one is unavailable (i.e. trapped in a sink of dirty dishes) when you need it most.
10. A stainless steel skimmer spoon to help you ~catch~ the fried fish (or potatoes) from out of the oil. Of course, it's not just great for deep frying — it's super clutch whenever you've got to drain excess liquid and separate out the food.
11. A handheld meat chopper because this tool makes cutting, mashing, and mixing beef, potatoes, and more not only fast but also kinda fun. Truly one of those kitchen gadgets you didn't realize you needed, and then suddenly can't live without.
12. An 8-inch nonstick fry pan if you've wasted way too many hours of your life scraping caked-on food off the bottom of the pan. Well, you'll never get ~stuck~ doing that again, thanks to this beaut (and no, you don't even have to use oil or butter)! Eggs are back on the menu, folks!
