A big skillet makes cooking several pounds of meat at a time much easier. This 14 inch skillet is hard-anodized, which is my absolute favorite surface.

Canning Funnel

A canning funnel is especially useful when pouring sauces and stocks into jars.

Cookie Sheets

You'll need big cookie sheets to lay your gallon bags flat to freeze. That way you can put them in your freezer like files, and they take up less space.

Cookie sheets are also ideal for freezing fruits and veggies, so that they freeze individually and don't stick together in a big lump.

(Let them freeze on the cookie sheet, and then put in a freezer bag once frozen.)

Mixing Bowls

These mixing bowls are perfect for mixing up big batches of ingredients for casseroles, etc. This set comes with pretty airtight lids too!

Color-coded Cutting Board Mats

These cutting boards are color-coded so you can avoid mixing food flavors. They'll remind you not to mix raw proteins with veggies.

They're also flexible so you can easily bend them and pour ingredients into your different containers.
