Oster 10-Speed Blender
A high-speed blender is indispensable in the kitchen. It's not just for making nutritious smoothies. Use it to whip up your own sauces and dressings, purée soups and condiments, or even make your own dairy-free milk.
Cuisinart Digital Glass Steamer
Steaming is a really healthy way to cook because it doesn’t add fat or calories to a dish. A dependable, easy-to-clean steamer lets you steam anything from seafood and poultry, to rice and grains.
Anova Culinary Sous Vide Precision Cooker
This nifty gadget takes the guesswork out of cooking so you can make restaurant-worthy meals without fuss. You can cook your proteins without oil or butter and still get robust flavors.We love how it connects to a companion app via Bluetooth so you can program your meal in advance.
Instant Pot
For fast and healthy cooking, this is what you need. It cooks food up to 50 to 80 percent faster than an oven or regular stove. You can put in all the ingredients in and leave it to cook your one-dish meal. And it's versatile. Make broths, soups and stews. Braise beef, boil eggs, make big batches of pasta sauce. You can do a lot with this one.
Slique Vegetable Spiralizer
Make spiralized fruit and vegetable noodles for textured salads, paleo-friendly pastas, and low carb dishes. Use them in curries, ramen and stir fries. Add color and texture to baked goods and pancakes. Healthy dishes can be fun and colorful too.
SodaStream Sparkling Water Maker
If you’re finding it hard to stop drinking soda, why not make homemade soda water or sparkling water instead? Have fun playing with flavors using fruit, herbs, and spices. Make your own ginger ale or even whip up a few guilt-free cocktails.
Microplane Zester/ Grater
We love the microplane. You can grate garlic or ginger so finely that the granules almost disappear leaving only flavor. Use this for flavor and to "pretty up" your food. Grate hard cheeses, zest citrus, shave chocolate. Because healthy eating should be fun, flavorful and a delight to eat.
