    Equipment to Make your Dinner Easy

    Making a dinner can sometimes be challenging, especially if you're not used to cooking. Luckily these days we're blessed with equipment available on our market shelves which makes cooking much easier and quicker than before!

    Investing some money on these items will save time down the line when trying new things or preparing meals at home with friends who come over unexpectedly! My top Picks are

    • Air Fryer for hassle-free roasting and cooking.
    • Immersion Blender is a must-have to make your soups and pasta sauces easily.
    • Instant Pot and Pressure Cooker is a life savor. You can make perfact one-pot meals, curries, lentils, rice, and much more in 70% less time than traditional stove cooking.
    • Vegetable Chopper and Spiralizer make prepping vegetables so easy and quick. It's a must-have in a kitchen. It is so easy to use that even your kids can help you with prep work.
    • My all time favourite Nonstick Granite Cookware, Garlic Press, Can Opener, Collapsible Colander, Storage Containers and Reusable Food Storage Bags.

    Tips and Tricks

    Making a vegan dinner doesn't have to be a long and complicated process. With a little planning and some simple strategies, you can get a delicious meal on the table in no time. Here are a few tips to help you make quick and easy dinners:

    • First, make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and ready to go before you start cooking. This will help you save time and avoid making multiple trips to the fridge or pantry.
    • Start with a basic recipe that can be easily altered to suit your tastes. For example, a simple pasta dish can be transformed into a gourmet meal by adding a variety of different vegetables and plant based meat.
    • Choose recipes that can be cooked in one pot or pan. These "one-pot wonders" are ideal for busy weeknights.
    • Make use of leftovers. Cook extra lentils, chickpeas and beans when you're making dinner and use it in a new recipe the next night.
    • Keep your pantry and fridge stocked with staples that can be used to quickly create a meal. Items such as pasta, rice, canned tomatoes, canned beans and frozen vegetables are all great options.
    • As I stated above invest in some quality kitchen tools that will make cooking easier and faster. A good sharp knife, for instance, can be worth its weight in gold when it comes to preparing meals quickly.

    By following these tips, you'll be able to get delicious dinners on the table in no time at all.

    So whether you're looking for a quick dinner option or a hearty meal, these easy vegan recipes and tips will help you get the job done. Let us know how they make your life easier!
