Jenna’s kitchen notes & additional favorites

CONTAINERS

Glass Storage Containers | Store food, reheat, and eat all out of the same container. Fewer dishes, better organization, and no plastic.

Homemade Spice Blend Jars | Great airtight jars for our homemade Italian, ranch, and taco seasonings.

Scoops for Homemade Spice Blend Jars | We keep these in each spice jar to eliminate getting a new measuring utensil dirty each time we use these (daily). Each scoop is 2 Tbsp.

Souper Cubes | These are my favorite containers to freeze homemade broth in. They can also be used to freeze individual soup or food portions in. Once frozen, pop them out and stack the frozen blocks in a gallon-sized freezer Ziploc.

Deli Storage Containers (32 oz) | Used for storing and/or freezing soups, broths, cut-up fruit, etc.

PREP TOOLS

Wood Cutting Board | A staple of all chopping. We’ve had this one for over 7 years. Applying board oil with the applicator a few times a year helps prolong the life of the board.

Chef’s Knife | A great knife for all the chopping. We’ve also had this one for over 7 years, and continue to sharpen with our handy knife sharpener.

Food Scale | We love the versatility and ease of use of this one.

COOKWARE & BAKEWARE

Baking Sheets | These larger 14×20 baking sheets fit in a standard-sized oven. I love that I can bake or roast more things in less time by using large baking sheets.  It’s one of the easiest ways to increase efficiency in the kitchen!  These are heavy-duty and super high-quality. Bonus: it also allowed me to simplify our kitchen and toss the small, flimsy pans in random sizes we had.

Silicone Baking Mat | For our large 14×20 baking sheets. Makes for no sticking and easy cleanup.

Large Lasagna/Casserole Dish | When a standard 13×9-inch pan won’t do for larger casseroles and lasagna recipes.

SMALL APPLIANCES

Instant Pot 6 qt | 8 qt

Blender | We use a Vitamix, and it’s stood the test of time. Made in Cleveland, Ohio—the company has a great reputation for amazing customer service. Here is a high-quality, lower-priced blender good for the same things.
