You know how it's always easier to fix something around the house if you have the right tools? Trust me, using a key as a screwdriver is not a good idea.

Anyway, the same thing applies in the kitchen -- if you're trying to cook low-fat, portion controlled meals, but still want them to be flavorful and delicious, you need the right tools to get started!

Celebrity diet chef Bethenny Frankel told Health that her favorite kitchen tools make it easy to consistently cook light. And, in addition to a few of her favorite gadgets, she shared a couple of other "skinny kitchen" tricks. Check out the gallery to see how she keeps her clients thin!
