Kitchen Necessities: Small Tools

-
These are the best small tools to have in a kitchen when you are trying to eat healthier! They are really a must. I know I didn't have them before and even when I got them, I did not use them much, but now they are a necessity!

I use these very often now. You will too if you don't have them already!

What is a tool you use often that I don't have listed here?

Apple Corer

You can core the apple only and then slice sideways for apple sliced cookies or you can core the apple while making wedges too! YOU CHOOSE!

Vegetable Spiraler

You can make healthier 'noodles' this this! I love my Veggeti to make Zoodles! The kids get whole grain noodles while I enjoy 'pasta' night with my Zoodles! YUM! You can use hand held Spiraler (wheat I have) or you can get the counter top one. YOU CHOOSE!

Vegetable Peeler

I have used knives and low cost peelers, but I cannot encourage the investment of a good quality peeler for your veggies! I use them for cucumbers and carrots mostly.

  For me, I start working out, and I gain weight. Muscle and burn fat! See the dots after the yellow line. At least I'm maintaining. 🤪 🤣 🤭 😊 👍 Back story... In 2012, I greatly changed my eating, in 18 months, I had lost 101 lbs the healthy way. I made sure I still had three meals, they were great portions is full of the nutrients that I needed. My doctors were very impressed with my numbers in fact one even got out of pen and paper and asked me what I was doing. Lol... no more blood pressure medicine, no more PCOS symptoms, no more IBS symptoms, it was amazing!! 2015, I added fitness for long-term maintenance. I'm glad I did because it opened up a supportive community and the support that I gained increased success of health goals because when you lose that much weight and your family/friends don't lose any, it definitely changes some Dynamics. Lacking support. It just does. But when I work out, my body tends to gain muscle. I lifted a lot of weight in high school and ...
