Essential Kitchen Tools

A crockpot. A crockpot is great for making larger batches of meals like chili and soups, and you can always freeze the leftovers. Whenever you have a busy night, you just need to defrost, heat, and you’re ready to eat a home-cooked meal. Moms all over the world (and those awesome dads and grandparents, too) can rejoice! 

Besides chili or soup, try pulled pork, stew, or pot roast in the crockpot. Just let it simmer all day and then the meat will be falling off of the bone. Reddit User: beekaaaargh
