Microwave steamer: I am absolutely obsessed with this steamer! It is made of silicone, which won’t leach weird chemicals into your food as it cooks. Underneath those luscious veggies, there is a riser that is designed to keep the veggies a few centimeters under the little bit of water you add before placing the lid on. The water boils and circulates to steam the veggies in 8 minutes or less! THIS is why rice and steamed veggies is my fave quick, 10 minute lunch!
Potato Express: This is my favorite contraption for cooking sweet potatoes and potatoes quickly! When I have the time, I oven roast, but at work and when time is limited, I use this fabric bag. Simply wash whole potatoes and pop in the bag. No need to stab with a fork- they will not explode in the bag! A full bag that can lay flat takes about 8 minutes to cook the potatoes! I always have one of these in my desk at work!
Instant Pot: I own two Instant Pots! I have one large one that I cook my rice in each week, and a mini one (linked to the left) specifically for cooking morning oats (1 cup of oats/groats, 3 cups of water, porridge button = makes 2 servings)! This smaller one is great for single meals, while the larger is great for meal prepping!
Silicone baking sheet: These baking sheet covers are game changers. Not only will you save on aluminum foil and cleanup, but they really great in the nonstick department. Although I still use a quick spray of Pam when roasting veggies, these are so quick and easy to clean. AND you will save money on baking sheets. I’ve had mine for years!
Large stainless steel wok: This wok is amazing. My husband cleans the dishes after I cook, and he always raves about this product! When you are eating whole food plant based, you are preparing a LOT of veggies. You will not survive with some medium sized frying pans. This wok is incredibly nonstick AND holds your biggest stir-fries! We use it often to sauté peppers and onions, which can be a messy task with no oil. Soak it with soapy water, and all that gunk comes right off. It’s also stainless steal so you don’t have to worry about any of those cancer causing nonstick coatings! Check it out!
