This is the time of year when everyone is dusting off their grill covers, remembering the grates they forgot to clean last fall, and generally just realizing their old grill won’t cut it. It’s time for a clean slate, and Otto Wilde Grillers can take care of that. The grill’s two infrared gas burners can reach temperatures of up to 1500˚F in just three minutes, giving your steak a beautiful crust on the outside while its center remains tender and juicy. Because the grill functions similar to a restaurant salamander, it is also perfect for cooking fish, vegetables, and even comes with the option of a pizza-making set.

The kitchen gadget I can’t do without is my Instant Pot. I purchased it a little over a year ago and I can’t imagine my kitchen without it. I use it at least three times per week to make everything from quick soups, stews, pasta dishes and breakfasts. What I love most is the “set it and forget it” aspect. There’s no monitoring, no stirring, and no wondering if what I’m making is ready.” Plus, in most cases, it cooks your recipes quicker than the stove top.

As a co-founder of a meal planning app, I do a lot of cooking and one of the most time consuming tasks can being chopping vegetables. Especially if you’re meal prepping or cooking for a family, it can be exhausting chopping tons of vegetables, which is why I love this vegetable chopper. It makes chopping a breeze and all of the pieces look uniform and perfect. It lowers the barrier to having more fresh, healthy vegetables in your meals and anything that makes cooking healthier and easier is a winner for me. It’s a great addition to a kitchen of a person who wants to eat healthier but feels like they don’t have the time.
