Country Crock Original

These are simple recipes with any of the country crock varieties I received this product free for testing purposes from @countrycrock @simplegoodness #simplegoodness and @influenster.  I use it to flavor all my veggies after they are steamed.  The family uses it on toast, muffins, biscuits, and potatoes. 

Easy recipe

1 head of cauliflower cleaned and cut

1 head of broccoli cleaned and cut

Steam until done add 2 tbsp of Country Crock

A better alternative than cheese, or butter far more healthy and not to mention great tasting, low cal and affordable.

I was pleased to have this product at hand. I have used it several times and hate to say I forgot I was supposed to review it. Opps my bad, it is such a wonderful cooking tool it felt natural to use it, that I would have it in my kitchen at any moments notice. So, by now this has been used to test chicken, pork, beef, water for my French Press, and many other things such as testing if a pie is cooked, custards done and the like. #DigitalCookingThermometer

There are many times I have eyeballed or could smell when things were done according to smell, which is usually right on. Alas, I was wrong ONCE the rest of the time I am on the spot. It happened to be chicken thank you Cafe Whizz for this excellent product. There are several buttons, on/off  button, hold, change from F to C, and max/min. Unless you are a culinary artisan I am only concerned with on/off  and the temp buttons. It is simple and easy to use, the stainless still rod slips in quickly and washes off with soap and water to be stored until its next use. I did note that I like my coffee rather hot compared to others.  Not that it matters, but was unsure why my mouth was always sore could be that I am scalding my mouth daily. 

I have found other uses, such as milk temp for baby formula, elderly, and young children to make sure they too are not getting scalded by the food you are giving to them. I received this product at a highly reduced rate for my honest unbiased opinion and testing purposes. 

Narrow Stainless Steel Measuring Spoons for Thin, Narrow Mouth Spice Jars - Set of 6 - Accurate and Commercial Chef's Quality for Baking and Cooking

I have found my perfect measuring spoons and believe me when I tell you I go through several hard plastic spoons that have warranties for a least a year that never make it that far. I end up using the warranty only to have the sizes wear off or a cracked, burned, accidental meltdown, or misplaced by getting stuck in a drawer and bending. What you will receive. #NarrowMeasuringSpoons
One of each
1 tablespoon (15 ml) (15gm)
1 teaspoon (5 ml) (5 gm)
3/4 tsp (3.75 ml) (3.75 gm)
1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) (2.5 gm)
1/4 tsp (1.25 ml) (1.25 gm)
1/8 tsp (0.6 ml) (.6 gm)

I enjoy the elongated spoon rather than a round spoon to get into jars and spices with narrow openings. Easy to clean and store, they have a good weight to them and not one that you will be replacing anytime soon. They also come with a lifetime warranty, the size is etched deeply into the long handle which both are an excellent feature getting into the bottom of a jar with ease, and not having to worry about the size wearing off. I am currently teaching my daughter some old family recipes that call for gm's instead of tsp, or ml. I thought I would add those which are the same as ml, but many are not aware of that. Occasionally you will come across a dram but usually used in pharmacies and hospitals.

Sunsella Stainless Steel Pastry Scraper & Chopper With the holidays quickly sneaking up on me I was glad to get this product. I have in the past watched my father magically change the course of a meal with this chopper, but I had never quite mastered it. I had watched my mother make bread and cut her dough quickly several times. As a young woman, I was amazed. Now as an adult I have my own first this is not a light weight product, this is sturdy, excellently balanced and sharp as can be much like the blade of a knife. I used it for an entire meal from cutting veggies, scooping them up and tossing them into the steamer.

I finally realized what the measuring number were for on the blade or at least I think I did, we had a steaming slab of baby back ribs which are never cut right in my house, because they are hot and the knife is never thick enough so maneuvering always left burnt fingers. I was able to slice it like butter with this chopper in less than a minute I had perfect proportions, no burned fingers, and a beautiful plate all using this one piece of kitchen 

equipment.#sunsellapastryscraper is a must have in any kitchen due to the versatility of this product. From pastry dough to meat chopping gives me the ability to take back my kitchen drawers and precisely cut, chop and even slice. I received this product for free or at a highly discounted rate for my honest unbiased opinion and home testing purposes.

This piece of equipment is sharp, keep away from children and be aware of where you put your fingers while using this. It comes with a soft plastic covering for the blade end. I suggest you use it and not throw it away.

Sunsella 100% Stainless Steel Vegetable Steamer First and foremost I love my #sunsellaveggiesteamer, I got it to replace one that is over thirty years old. I was confident in the product before receiving although that sounds wrong it is not. If you have used a product for many years you can appreciate its use when you can no longer use it. The first mushy veggie from being boiled to death will make you appreciate this steamer.

It is made of 100% stainless steel, and has legs which my other one did not. The ring in the center for me is most important for without my fingers would be calloused with burns. I use it to steam veggies, perogies, frozen pasta, fish and even my boiled eggs. I am lost without the use of this steamer. Old fashioned, yes it is but effective. It fits most pots whose base is the same size or bigger than the steamer. The wings allow it to expand and close as need be. I am buying two more this year one for my daughter and daughter in law so they too may be sitting here thirty years later talking about their steamers. I received this product for free or highly reduced rate for my honest unbiased opinion and my own home testing purposes.

Just in time for the holiday is this Priority Chef two stage knife sharpening system. Grips firmly to the counter top, the first stage uses course sharpening stone for the dullest of knives, while the second stage uses fine sharpening to bring your dull blade back to new. I thought I was going to have to go buy a new set of knives. God love him but my better half had nearly ruined all of our knives by grinding them to near pencil points.  I have a set that was farther back in the drawer I pulled out yesterday and began to sharpen each one. #prioritychef

It is easy to use simply swipe slowly through the first, then second slot and your knife is unbelievably sharp again. I feel like I have a whole new set of kitchen knives. Never again will I have to look at that dingy old sharpening stone or have awkward thin knives. Finally a rounded tomato slice and not a mushed mess.  I will be sharing codes with you so that you too can enjoy this simply yet powerful sharpening system. A full five dollars off of the retail value. Please use the code attached to the pictures. If you don't know what it is I will put it on this page so you can copy and paste with the link I provide.  I received this product at a discount or for free for my unbiased honest opinion and home testing purposes.

[[ASIN:B016DQPT1O Creator Studio - Vegetable NextGen Spiral Slicer Cutter Spiralizer Bundle, 4-blade Pasta Noodle Spaghetti Maker. Best Spiralizer 150% Bigger for 50% Less Vegetable Wastage. Free Recipe Ebook]] I wanted this product for really one thing and that is the never ending french fry, yeah I dream big. Seriously, this is an excellent product especially for anyone cooking with a lot of veggies, quick, efficient, no wasting of food product and variation. Anyone that has been on a fat free, low carb diet that uses veggies as the main dish knows there are only so may variations of green or white colors you can take before you start screaming about the oddly gray or white food you eat. It is just very unappealing.  Since I grew up with a father that was a Chef in the Army this was not normal for me. Food is to be savored, enjoyed and remembered. They have a recipe booklet they send you, but I have been taught enough about flavor mixing in a healthy way that I decided on a spaghetti squash dish with zucchini, carrots, shallot with a white wine balsamic vinaigrette dressing tossed you can slow saute your veggies until detente never mushy that seriously grosses me out I ran a little brick of ghost cheese through it and it didn't stick (I like bold flavors). With the #Sprializer I was able to get exactly that. I was not smart enough to get a picture because we were to busy eating. This product takes using veggies to a whole new level. My only warning is not to allow your children near it, the blades are extremely sharp and did come out of their packaging. I made the stupid mistake of grabbing it before it hit the floor and managed to cut myself rather well.  I found an old band-aide container made out of plastic (travel size) to put my extra blades in when not in use. Cleans well with soap and water, comes with a small brush to clean out the blades if need be.

Say goodbye to your grater and torn up fingers the #spiralizer will make handy work of all your needs from now on. I will be using chunks of fresh pumpkin and zucchini to make some healthy muffins for the holiday, and a few for lunches during the week.
