I'm a big fan of using products in my kitchen that cut down on prep time and reduce the number of dishes I'm going to have to clean afterward. So here's a little list of gadgets and bits that I think are great additions to anyone's kitchen.

Brieftons QuickPush Food Chopper

Gadgets like this are so useful when I need vegetables cut uniformly and quickly. It cuts prep time in half and keeps me from crying over an onion on my cutting board.

ChefVantage Premium Olive Oil Mister

I'm actually planning on putting this on my wedding registry! I'm terrible about pouring too much olive oil when I'm cooking, and I don't like using the aerosol canned oils since it's bad for the environment, so this beautiful gadget is the perfect solution for me. I can fill it with whatever oil I want, whether it's run-of-the-mill vegetable oil or a fancier oil my mom bought me for Christmas, and control the amount I want to use!

Bellemain Stainless Steel Non-Slip Mixing Bowls with Lids

When I first moved out and got my own place, it never occurred to me to buy mixing bowls with lids. But let me tell you, it's a game changer. Whether you're making cookie dough that needs to be refrigerated or storing large amounts of leftovers, these make it so much easier!
