If you're going to leave processed foods behind and start creating your own healthy meals at home, you're likely going to need a few kitchen gadgets. A year or so ago, I received a mini Cuisinart as a gift and it transformed meal preparations for me. Suddenly, dishes I always dreaded became my favorites, because I no longer had to chop every vegetable or drag out the blender to create sauces and spreads.

So what kind of gadgets belong in a healthy kitchen? Here's a great list to get your started, from small inexpensive tools to cooktops and indoor grills. A few that are on my wish list:

an oil sprayer to reduce the amount of oil when browning
a plastic, flexible cutting mat
a microwave vegetable cooker
a juicer
a convection oven (yeah, I'm dreaming)

What kinds of gadgets do you have in your healthy kitchen that you just can't cook without?

Funny, I just blogged about a healthy kitchen gadget today, too - the AWESOME Simplehuman automatic soap dispenser (no more raw chicken on your soap pump!). http://www.marksdailyapple.com/simplehuman-soap-dispenser/

I have a thing that I bought for my fridge that is good for killing bacteria on your fruits and vegetables. I buy a lot of organic fruit and the fruit would rot after about a week and I would end up spending way too much money for the fruit to go bad within a week. I started doing my research and ran across the product I have in my fridge. The name is a Mini Mate and i have only had it for about 4 weeks now but I love how much money it is saving me on my fruits and even my lunch meets seem to be lasting longer and its almost like I can taste the freshness in the meat and fruit. This is just a recommendation but if you think this is something you like then look at the website and buy one! www.orderminimate.com
