A Few of My Favorite Things
Here are 3 of my favorite weeknight tools to help get dinner on the table in 30 minutes or less!!

Deluxe Multi Cooker
Ever forget to take the chicken out of the freezer before you leave for work?
This lets you cook from frozen quickly while retaining more nutrients in your food! It also has additional features that allows you to slow cook, sear, steam & and so much more!

Salad Choppers
This dual bladed tool is not just for salads!! This tool will also chop/shred cooked chicken and pork in a fraction of the time compared to alternate methods like 2 forks!!

Garlic Press
Fresh Garlic has many health benefits but lets face it is a pain to peel so we opt for powder or refrigerated garlic. Our tool allows you to mince garlic without peeling it and is dishwasher safe!
