After decades of cooking for my little family, I’m finally feeling as if my kitchen is properly stocked with all the utensils and gadgets I need.
Spoiler Alert: They are simple. I’ve found you don’t really need every single new and fancy gadget or appliance.
Most of them are just space taker-upers and I don’t have that much extra space.
I’ve gotten pretty minimalist in my mid-life years and I like it.
So what Gadgets does your kitchen really need?
Here are my favorites that I use on a weekly, if not daily basis!

The Best Kitchen Gadgets
If you have a little cash to splurge stocking your kitchen, these are the 6 most important gadgets and utensils that I use weekly, if not daily!
Ninja BL770 Mega Kitchen System, 1500W, 4 Functions for Smoothies, Processing, Dough, Drinks & More, with 72-oz.* Blender Pitcher, 64-oz. Processor Bowl, (2) 16-oz. To-Go Cups & (2) Lids, Black
I'm on my second Ninja Blender. Not because it's bad. But because it's just that good. My first blender died but it wasn't it's fault. It was user error. I love this blender SO MUCH, that I would and will buy it again and again. No blender crushes ice like this guy.
It will make smoothies smooth. No chumky chunks or ice. What a miracle!
Instant Pot Duo 7-in-1 Electric Pressure Cooker, Slow Cooker, Rice Cooker, Steamer, Sauté, Yogurt Maker, Warmer & Sterilizer, Includes App With Over 800 Recipes, Stainless Steel, 6 Quart
I never knew I wanted an InstaPot until my sweet MIL gave me one for my birthday several years ago. Honestly, it make the best rice. I was terrible at making rice before this baby! And beans and roasts and soup. It's the best!
Cuisinart CSB-179 Smart Stick Variable Speed Hand Blender, Stainless Steel
Oh my goodness. I just finally broke down and bought this immersion blender. I love making broccoli soup and black bean soup.
i would cook it and then put it in the Ninja Blender (above). Last week, I broke down and bought this. It makes blending soup SO much easier. I can't believe I ever lived without it now!
KitchenAid NEW 7 Quart Bowl Lift Stand Mixer with Double Flex Edge Beater KSM70SK, Mineral Water
What can I say about his mixer? I have had mine for over 15 years now and it's still going strong.
I make pizza dough, bread dough, cookies and cakes. I couldn't live without it!
GreenPan Rio Healthy Ceramic Nonstick 16 Piece Cookware Pots and Pans Set, PFAS-Free, Dishwasher Safe, Turquoise
Teflon is a thing of the past. These pots and pans are fantastic! I feel so much better about cooking with these than I ever have with any other pot or pan I've had! They are non stick and last!
Gaggia Brera Super-Automatic Espresso Machine, Small, Black, 40 fl oz
The last gadget on my list is this Gaggia Esspresso maker! I wasn't much of a coffee drinker until I visited my sister a few years ago and she had a Gaggia. It was awesome.
We saved some money and splurged on this. What a great purchase! I can make an espresso, an Americano or an Espresso Longo, aka a cup of coffee.
It's my not-so-guilty pleasure!
