On paper, it sounds pretty easy to switch to a healthier way of eating. Cut out carbs, increase your protein, and drink more water; there are a lot of tips you can follow to eat better. While the routine is pretty simple, the problem for a lot of people comes down to time, effort, and taste. Fast food tastes great when you’re starving, grabbing a sugar-laced snack bar is easier than making a salad, and cooking a healthy meal takes more time than a lot of people have in their busy day.
The trick to healthy eating is to set yourself up so it’s easy to prepare healthy food, and all you need to do is add a few small appliances to your kitchen. Some are obvious choices, while others might surprise you. This is why I love KitchenAid so much, they have everything you need to eat well and keep your kitchen in order.
Blenders have long been an appliance staple for anyone interested in healthy eating. With a powerful blender on your countertop, you can blend up a quick smoothie, make a veggie-packed dip, or whip up a hot soup in minutes.
The KitchenAid K400 Blender has a 3-part blending system easily blends even the toughest ingredients for a consistent texture. The ribbed jar design creates a powerful vortex, pulling ingredients into the unique asymmetric blade that cuts at four distinct angles, ensuring your ingredients are thoroughly blended.
The second I unpacked the KitchenAid K400 blender I liked it, and I hadn’t even turned it on yet. That’s because this powerful blender can sit under my kitchen cabinets, leaving me with the option of placing it neatly in a corner. With other blenders, I’ve always had to have clearance for them while on the counter, so it’s nice the KitchenAid K400 Blender is so compact. That is very important if you live in a small apartment or have a small kitchen.
Another appliance that is perfect for the kitchen is a cordless speed hand mixer. This appliance is great for whipping up your favorite recipes while moving about the kitchen. You can make up to 200 cookies on a full charge.
You will definitely want to add a cordless chopper to your kitchen. Chop, mix, and puree without limitations. Chop up to 40 onions on a full charge. This will make your dinner preparations go by so much faster and the clean up will be so easy.
Every kitchen needs a cordless hand blender. You have the power to blend in the palm of your hand while embracing movement. It can blend 25 bowls of soup in a full charge. This is perfect for your summer dips and dressings.
Finally the one appliance that I always have a trouble with- the toaster. I have been looking for the perfect toaster to fit in with my other appliances and not take up too much space. I was so excited to see the KitchenAid 2 Slice Long Slot Toaster. The toaster features extra-long, extra-wide slots to toast a variety of shapes and sizes. You can also reheat your toast in it.
I know that sticking to a healthy eating plan can be hard. Having these small appliances on hand will help you cook speedy dinners, help curb cravings for deep-fried foods, and make it really easy to eat more fruits and veggies.
