The #1 Kitchen Appliance Everyone Should Have

It is no secret that I am not a great cook.  So when I find a Kitchen Appliance that makes me look like a Chef, I am all over it!  Add in that it is incredible for Eating Clean, and you have my #1 Kitchen Appliance Every Kitchen Should Have!

Four years ago I won a West Bend Programmable Steamer from my Home Party Plan Company.  I had no idea then how much I was going to end up using it!  When it arrived I promptly unpacked it…. and put it in the cabinet.  It was like finding a painting on sale, and putting it in a closet – not knowing just how valuable it is. When I did finally break it out of the cabinet again I quickly fell in love.

The West Bend Programmable Steamer will cook everything from vegetables to fish to rice – all in one place.  You can truly cook an entire meal in just one appliance.  Some of the stats of the steamer are:

  • 12-Hour programmable timer; Given an optimum length of time to steam cook a variety of foods
  • 90-Minute electronic countdown timer-audible beep alerts to completed steaming
  • Tiered Steaming Versatility-Baskets are stackable to allow for multiple steamed food items at once; fit together for easy storage
  • Easy to add water, add water indicator signals when water level is low
  • Water-level Indicator Lens; Cool Touch Exterior and Handles; Digital Backlit LCD

Since deciding to Eat-Clean, this steamer has certainly gotten a workout.  Every day for lunch I have happily loaded my West Bend Programmable Steamer with all kinds of fresh veggies – from corn to fresh beans to carrots to asparagus – and I am always impressed with how flavorful the food is after cooking.

Today I paired by West Bend Programmable Steamer with my second favorite appliance – my George Foreman Grill – for an amazingly filling, healthy lunch.   Both Mike and the Toddler ate every bit!

The West Bend Steamer is a great way to save money AND stay healthy.  Today’s lunch yielded 3 full servings at approximately $4.25 a piece.   Where else can you get that kind of nutrition – in 15 minutes – for less than $5!?

Honestly, I believe every kitchen should come equipped with one of these.  It should be as standard as a refrigerator or oven.  I believe that would significantly cut down on the obesity rate in America.  Imagine if the whole country ate Cleaner…

If you are looking to lose weight.  If you are looking to get healthier.  If you are looking to save money.  If you are looking for an easy way to APPEAR to be able to cook.  You need a West Bend Programmable Steamer.
