Pots and Pans
All Purpose Skillet
Like a sauce pan meets skillet. This pan is 5 quarts vs. 3.5 quarts like a typical skillet. So it’s a perfect all-purpose pan! Oven-safe too!
Oven-Safe Non-Stick Skillet
Great for gnocchi bakes, small batch soups, stews, dips, braised chicken, pot pie, casseroles, and baked meatballs.
A More Affordable Non-Stick Skillet
This is a GREAT non-stick skillet at a reasonable price. But the downside is it isn’t oven safe. So basically just means more dishes.
Cast Iron Skillet
I love this for buffalo chicken dip, baked pastas/casseroles, roasting chicken, cornbread, frittatas, searing chicken/steak. I have the 10.25-inch and 12-inch pans. Lodge is a great brand for a reasonable price.
A Heavy Duty Dutch Oven
6-3/4 quart is my ideal size because you can scale up or down the amount of food in it depending on who you are serving. Great for soups, stews, roasting a chicken, risotto, and pastas.
A Super Large Pot
I love doubling soups/sauces for a batch to store in the freezer. This pot makes it so I can make it all in one pot.
Roasting Pan
You will use this way more than you think! Thanksgiving turkeys, roasted chicken, beef tenderloins, ham, pork butt/shoulder, and ribs.
