     The right kitchen tools will save you time and make

    food prepping even more enjoyable. These five kitchen

    basics are multi-tasking masters that make healthy cooking quick, easy and safe for The Healthy Mom.

    The most versatile blade inthe bunch, a sharp chef’sknife is the best knife toslice, dice, chop and mincevegetables, fruit, lean meats,poultry, fish, nuts and herbs.

    1)Chef ’sknife

    Steaming food maximizes nutrient retention.

    Boiling, broiling, sautéing and grilling canbreak down the nutrients during the cookingprocess. Short on cash? Invest in someparchment paper. At $4 per roll, you cansimply place your protein and veggies on thepaper, season with olive oil, lemon, herbsand spices, fold up, then pop in the oven. Thecomponents will not only steam inside thepouch – they’ll soak up the flavors betterthan other cooking methods. Bonus: Kids canunwrap them like a present at meal time!

    2)Steam pot

    Bamboo cutting boards are notonly beautiful, they are eco-friendly

    and healthier than plastic boardsbecause they deter bacterialgrowth. Have one for produceand one for meats.

    3)Bamboocutting boards

    A multi-blade food processor makes short work ofshredding cheese or vegetables, puréeing ingredientsfor sauces and soups, making smoothies, pulverizingspices and nuts and grinding grains.4)Food processor

    In addition to draining pasta, you can use colanders torinse the sodium from canned beans and wash fruitsand vegetables before you eat or cook with them.

    5)Colander

    BreakfastBreakfast is not only the most important meal of the day – it can

    also be the most delicious. Starting the day with healthy recipes that

    include a satisfying balance of carbohydrates (to keep you fueled)

    and protein (to keep you full) means more energy and a lower

    likelihood of overeating later in the day for you and your family.
