I don’t know if you are like me but as a single mom, I do not have TIME EVER! Any way I can cut down on my shopping I do it though I do like my Target runs let’s not be confused about that 🙂 However, my second favorite store is Amazon (ok I know technically it’s not a store but still). I can get anything delivered if not in a few hours for sure by the next few days. Over the years I’m sure Amazon has banked off of me and my sisters because of our constant shopping habits but it’s saved on gas for sure. Have you seen gas prices lately? Here are a few favorite things I’ve seen that make life in the kitchen easier as well. If it’s a shortcut to save time I’m all about it!
1- Oil Sprayer for Cooking Oil– If you are a cooker like I am I don’t like to get oil all over my hands especially when I’m cooking meats so this is a great way to aerosolize oil to make it easier to use.
2- Wisk wiper– This thing is not only a time saver it’s a genius invention! Especially when you are done with that brownie batter and that sucker just sticks on… genius.
3- Jar Spatula– Ok…am I the only one who has a hard time getting the sides of a jar clean? Oh good.. I thought I was 😂 This is a genius invention!
4- Air Fryer Disposable Paper Liner– I don’t know about you but I love my air fryer. It’s a lifesaver when you are trying to save time. However, the cleaning can be arduous so these are so amazing for a quick clean-up!
5- Dirty/Clean Dishwasher Sign- Do you have a short memory like I do? When you have so many things in your brain it’s hard to remember if you have clean or dirty dishes in the dishwasher. This little reminder is so helpful to knowing where you are at in the cycle.
6- Magnetic Fridge Calendar– If you are anything like me you can have a pretty hectic schedule and it can become pretty overwhelming when you are adding doctors/dentists/ and school appointments. I love having something on my face in the mornings so I know what I’m doing for the day.
7- Meat Claw Shredders- I’m a bit of a meat person so when I’m doing pulled pork sandwiches or crack chicken I for sure don’t want to burn my hands shredding meat. This is a great product to not get your hands burned or dirty!
8- Pizza Cutter- At least once a week I’m too exhausted to make food that when the ol’ pizza gets whipped out. I have 2 in my freezer at all times because you know… life. This cutter makes it way easier to just zip through all of the slices.
9. Charcuterie Board– This is more of a mental health product for me. I love a good cheese board with a glass of wine on the weekends. It’s such a nice way to wind down a busy and stressful week. However, most of the time I have to save a place for goldfish on the board so the kids can enjoy it too😂
10. Foil Dispenser with Cutter Bamboo, 3 in 1 Kitchen Roll– This is such a huge lifesaver for me! I don’t know about you but plastic wrap and aluminum foil can end up a huge clump of mess in my drawers. This is a genius idea on how to organize it.
11. Boiled Egg Peeler – I love a good deviled egg however I do not like peeling them. Here’s a great way to have it peeled without having to do it by hand. It saves so much time when you don’t have to do it yourself!
12. Sauce Packet Filter– If you have kids like mine you will know that if they find any green herbs in any of their food they refuse to eat it at all. This is a creative way to infuse flavor into your food without having to pick out all of the herbs before the kids see.
13. Silicone Kitchen Sink Faucet Mat– I love this product! When you have water all over your counter it’s no fun. This is a guard that will protect your counters from getting all wet.
14. Porcelain Butter Keeper Crock– If you have ever gotten frustrated from trying to spread cold butter this helps you not to. It is so easy to use and the water helps it keep soft and fresh and extra bonus it’s in a cute butter dish.
15. Angry Mama Microwave Cleaner– This is the cutest and easiest product to use! I hate cleaning the microwave but this cute steamer makes it so easy. All you have to do is steam up the microwave and wipe it down time saved!
16. Comfortable Handle, Heavy Duty Ice Cream Scoop- If you have ever been scooping icecream at a birthday party you know how it can hurt your hand after a while. Here’s a solution for that! Happy scooping!
17. Tool Herb Cutter Stainless Steel 9 Holes Herb– I love cooking with fresh spices but it always takes forever to get them stripped down to where I can chop it up. This will make it super quick to cut all of the leaves off. This is a great item to have in your kitchen!
18. Self-Cleaning with Dustpan Teeth– With children and animals I have hair everywhere! This is a life saver! No need to clean the nasty hair off the broom by hand.
19. Plastic Canisters with Durable Lids– Organization is my best friend! I love being able to keep everything in order because in a hurry it saves me time shuffling through my pantry. These are perfect not only to see whats in it but also you are able to label them.
20. Air Fryer Magnetic Cheat Sheet Set– I love my air fryer I use it so much for almost every meal in my house. I usually just guess at what I need to set the timer and temperature to however here’s a cheat sheet. It’s a brilliant idea to being able to quickly tell what to set your air fryer to and for what.
22. Strain Pot Strainer– I love this pasta strainer! It’s so hard to dump the hot water and noodles into the strainer in the sink but this is genius. I love that you can just clip this on the side of the pot!
