32 Kitchen Gadgets That Save Time And Money
Floral kitchen knives that'll make every meal prep feel like springtime (how refreshing!) — a new, sharp, beautiful set of tools is sure to motivate you to make dinner at home instead of Seamless-ing dinner for the umpteenth time. A nonstick, compact sandwich griddle to help you craft your own pressed sandwiches with ease — stuff your bread of choice, close the lid, and let it do its thaaaang. Seems like a no-brainer for parents with kiddo's whose blood is basically 90% grilled cheese at this point. A set of Anyday microwaveable cooking essentials that'll completely change how you cook and store leftovers — each dish is microwave- and dishwasher-safe *and* can also be used for steaming, roasting, and serving! You'll have waaay less to clean so you can get back to doing more important things like catch up with your bestie on that questionable first date she went on last night. A pasta maker, so when you're in the mood to indulge in an Italian feast, you won't need to shell out half your paycheck at a restaurant with a red and white checkered tablecloth. Pick up a bottle of wine, turn on a Dean Martin playlist, and have yourself an evening! Or a microwave pasta cooker that'll provide you with perfectly al dente noodles with the least effort possible so you can focus on recreating Gigi Hadid's spicy vodka sauce (as someone who cannot cook and has successfully made this, I promise it'll be worth your time). A "Gracula" garlic crusher that'll make you want to say "bleh, bleh, bleh" a la Hotel Transylvania whenever you use it — just don't let the Count hear you! With a few twists you can use it to mince garlic, ginger, nuts, chilis, and herbs. You won't believe you used to simply use garlic powder to amp up your food after one meal with this cutie. A veggie chopper for anyone who is, frankly, tired of cutting their vegetables only to find at the end of their prep that they're a jumbled mess that then cooks unevenly, resulting in a bunch of burnt bits. Save yourself time and exasperation by adding this tool to your arsenal. A 2-in-1 knife and cutting board you'll love if you detest cleaning full-sized cutting boards — they're so awkward to fit into my sink, and I somehow always end up drenched in the process. It'll also be a great option for making custom salads for the whole fam who don't necessarily want the same thing in theirs. Cut a few pieces of cucumber into your bowl and a few slices of bell pepper into your partner's! A family-sized Perfect Pot you can use on both the stovetop and in the oven — it'll replace your stock pot, Dutch oven, saucepot, roasting rack, steamer, colander, braiser, and spoon rest! Talk about a fabulous gift, jeez. A storage container with an air-tight seal to keep your nicely chopped vegetables fresh, so when you go to whip up an omelet, you can simply reach for it and throw your ingredients in, knowing they're still as good as the day you bought them. Will definitely beat ordering one for $15 at a diner when you'd much rather chill in your pajamas at home. A Ninja Crispi Air Fryer system that'll have you feeling like you've just become an American Ninja Kitchen Warrior. Throw your go-to lazy day meal of nuggets and fries into the glass container, attach it to the air fryer, then enjoy the fruits of your labor straight out of the same container. A corn stripper with a serrated stainless-steel blade because I don't know anyone who is coordinated enough to successfully run a regular knife nearly down an ear of corn while it's freshly hot off the grill or boiling water. Go ahead, make your life easier. An expandable colander you can fit snugly inside your sink to clean fruits and veggies, drain pasta, *and* dry dishes while also bringing some life to a typically boring area of the kitchen. Or a game-changing Snap N' Strain you can use with any pot or bowl. Just think of how much space you'll save in your already-crowded kitchen cabinets! Reviewers use it to strain a variety of things (not just pasta)! KitchenAid shears, because you should probably stop using your regular ol' crafting scissors when you're cooking. 😅 Use these to beautifully cut quesadillas or pizza into slices (a must-have for parents!) or to quickly chop herbs. Plus, some herb scissors so you can chop basil, chives, and parsley as fast as if you were gunning for inclusion in the Guinness Book of World Records as "World's Fastest Herb Cutter." And! A set of salad scissors that'll help you whip up a fancy salad in no time at all and without the hefty price tag that, sadly, comes with ordering a lovely chopped salad. An Emeril Lagasse dual zone air fryer over combo with precise temperature for both sides so you can cook two very different items at once (and in two different ways). It has the capability to air fry, bake, cook pizza, reheat, dehydrate, roast, broil, grill, toast, keep items warm, slow cook, and can be used as a rotisserie. Bam! Emeril is still killin' it! An electric potato peeler to help you transform spuds into mashed potatoes at record speed. If for some bizarre reason you *don't* want potatoes with every meal, it'll also work on other fruits 'n' veggies like like apples and kiwis. A shredder with suction cups to ensure it stays put on your counter while you twist away and prep the most delicious homemade pulled pork sammies on this side of the Mississippi 😉. A KitchenAid food chopper to spare you the hassle of trying to finely chop ingredients *and* make sure all of your sauces and soups will be lump free. An amazing cheese grater that'll have you volunteering to bring mac and cheese for every potluck from here on out — it has the ability to grate an entire block of cheese in under a minute!!! Fun fact: if you want to achieve the ooey, gooey, cheese pull of your dreams, you'll actually *need* to grate the block yourself. A rotating whisk blender you'll praise your new I-cook-all-the-time self for buying — it can blend, froth, whisk, beat, and stir, all without taking up much storage space in your kitchen. Are you someone who casually whips up a salad dressing all on your own? You just might be now, thanks to this tool. An "Adjust-A-Cup" measuring cup with a plunger dispenser attached to it you can use to accurately measure out liquids, annoyingly sticky substances (honey, peanut butter, etc) and regular ol' powders. It can be adjusted to measure between 1/8 cup–2 cups as well as teaspoon, tablespoon, ounces, and millimeter measurements. A meat thermometer so you'll never have to guess "is my steak cooked?" again. You can grill with confidence! A perfect egg timer to take all of the guesswork out of your egg-cooking process. The face on the timer will change colors to indicate how cooked your egg is, so if you're forever dreaming of a runny middle you'll be able to make them perfectly every time. Or a rapid egg cooker that'll REALLY make cooking the perfect egg a seamless experience. It can make hard-boiled eggs, poached eggs, scrambled eggs, and omelets — about two more kinds than I know how to make. Shh, don't tell anyone I'm about to rely on this gadget to make it seem like I know how to cook. With over 102,000 5-star reviews, you certainly can't go wrong. A microwave bacon cooker to help you make up to 1 lb of bacon evenly and quickly, so when your extended family is over for brunch, you'll be able to focus on perfecting your eggs and mimosas instead. A Better Breader Bowl — a container designed to make seasoning meat or veggies a cinch. All you have to do is add your bread crumbs/seasoning into one section and your meat/veggies to another then shake, shake, shake! An oil mister that'll help you perfectly cover your ingredients without getting your hands covered in grease so you can promptly get back to aimlessly scrolling your phone while your veggies cook. A 12-piece ceramic, nonstick Caraway cookware set complete with everything you'd possibly need to inspire you to make a mouthwatering meal in the comfort of your kitchen instead of heading out to eat (again). The set has a one-year warranty (phew) and is naturally non-stick, so you'll save $$$ on butter, oil, and cooking spray, and will be able to withstand waaaaay more cooking than those raggedy pots and pans you've been using since college. And a pre-seasoned Carbon Steel Griddle that'll change your grilling season forever — and extend it throughout the year! This bad boy can be used directly on the grill *and* gas, electric, and induction stovetops. It has sloped sides to prevent grease from escaping *gestures wildly* everywhere (phew, less cleanup) and is, honestly, going to have the entire family begging you to make smash burgers weekly.

These Glass Containers Made Me Hate the Microwave a Little Less
Maki Yazawa is a writer focused on making cooking fun. She once cooked for Natalie Portman, and her friends won't let her forget it. In an average week, the most action my microwave gets is reheating leftover spaghetti or reviving a cup of coffee. So preparing a full meal in one seemed more like science fiction than reality, until I tested Anyday, a line of cookware specifically designed to be used in the microwave. Frankly, I didn't see the need to cook meals in a microwave when I could rely on my stove or a multicooker to do the job—until some of my colleagues praised Anyday cookware's convenience.
