What's in Lisa's Kitchen: Amazon Gadgets & Other Finds
Since I’m spending more time than ever before in my kitchen, I've decided it’s due for some upgrades! What are the best and most-used items in your home kitchen?
Shopping Spree for Me
I’ve definitely got suggestions for you! Some of these are longtime favorites, and others are newer additions I'm not sure how I ever lived without. Get ready to fill your Amazon cart...
Pellet Ice Maker
Yes, you may have an ice tray. You may even have a fridge that makes ice. But compact ice makers like this one churn out perfect little ice nuggets in minutes… There’s just something about the soft texture of this ice that I absolutely love! The one I have is a built-in under-the-counter version, but this countertop maker is a phenomenal option at a fraction of the price. Although if you want to really treat yourself, the GE Profile Opal Countertop Nugget Ice Maker is the crème de la crème!Air Fryer
I’ve been experimenting A LOT with my air fryer, and I think everyone should own one! It adds a crispy finish to your food without any oil whatsoever. It also heats up WAY faster than the oven and is great for cooking up single servings in minutes. Some of my favorite things to air fry: bagel bites, sandwich wraps, and panko-crusted faux-fried food!Wide-Bottomed Microwave-Safe Mugs
Fans of my Facebook Lives know I’m all about my Dateline mug, but since not everyone is a true-crime fan, these classic white mugs are the way to go! I make a lot of microwavable recipes that cook up right in the mug, and these stout 16-oz. options are the ideal size. If this one’s out of stock, check out these other wide-bottomed mugs.Luminarc Working Glasses
These things have developed a cult following! They’re safe for your dishwasher, microwave, and freezer, but what I love most about them is their snug little lids -- perfect for storing in your fridge. These go in and out of stock quickly, but click here to see all the options available.Keurig Coffee Maker
I like coffee, but it's not something I drink a lot of -- one cup, and I'm good. Keurig machines are ideal because I can make a single serving of coffee without having to brew up a whole pot. I also like that it allows you to make your coffee exactly the way you like it: strong, not so strong… You name it! P.S. I keep fun flavored K-cups like these around at all times.Pure Komachi 2 Knives
These are my very favorite knives! I've purchased several sets over the years: for home, for Hungryland… even as gifts! Not only are they colorful and gorgeous, but they’re also really high quality and hold their sharpness for a long time. And it's nice that they come in a clear block, because who would want to hide all those fun colors? (Pssst… Also check out this similar set under $20!)It’s an All-New ALDI Haul on the HG Podcast!
