Kitchen Tools
These kitchen tools are my favorite items to use in my kitchen. You can use them while you’re cooking from my Instagram videos as I refer to these items often. I’ve linked my favorite brands below in bold that I trust and use myself in my kitchen and for all of my recipe testing.

Kitchen Storage
- Large Ball Jars (use for preserving jams and storing dressings, dips and sauces)
- Large Weck Jars (use for storing leftover food and dressings)
- Small Weck Jars (use for storing nuts and seeds)
- Brown Paper Bags (use for roasting bell peppers or to store snacks when traveling)
- Glass Storage Containers (use to store your leftovers)
- Parchment Paper Bags (use for packing lunches instead of plastic baggies)
- Unbleached Parchment Paper (use for lining your baking sheet to roast veggies on) I highly suggest you do not use tin foil because aluminum will leach into your food and enter your body, accumulating in your liver. Aluminum is not easy to remove from the body. I know this from personal experience and it can wreak serious havoc on your mind and body, especially neurologically. You can read more about how to reduce your exposure to heavy metals and toxins in your food, home and personal care products in my best-selling book, Eating Clean.
