g.u.s. Bamboo iPad Cooking Stand

With the holidays right around the corner, and the ease of finding awesome recipes on Pinterest, the Bamboo iPad Cooking Stand by Great Useful Stuff would be a great addition to the kitchen.  The plastic cover keeps your iPad safe but still allows you utilize your touch screen.  I have a similar stand for my traditional cookbooks but find that I use my computer and iPad more these days for cooking.  It can get messy in my kitchen when I'm in a food prep flurry, and this keeps my tablet safe safe and sound.  If you like healthy food, you probably do a lot of your own food prep as it is increasingly harder and harder to find gmo free and organic food in restaurants.  Great kitchen tools like this make it easier and more pleasurable to make your own meals at home. 

Bamboo looks great and is a renewable resource for the green kitchen.  It accommodates various e-readers and tablets, not just the iPad and would make a fabulous holiday or hostess gift.  Find it HERE.

Jazz up your Salads with the Rosle Grater

Want to add some variety to your salads?  Add some grated vegetables.  The colors and textures turn a plain salad into a rainbow of flavor and sensations.  My six year old son may not be in the mood for a salad, but if I show him a bowl full of bright green lettuce, orange shredded carrot, ruby red shredded beets and some sunflower seeds, that gets his attention!  Sometimes pulling out a box grater and then having to clean it up seems like too much work.  But a simple grater like this new Coarse Grater from Rosle fits the bill for fast and easy salad prep.

You can find cheaper graters, but they are not such a pleasure to use and will need to be replaced from time to time.  The Rosle will probably never need to be replaced.  It's made of quality 18/10 stainless steel and is dishwasher safe.  I love that you can prop it right over a bowl and grate your veggies right in, or, because of the rubber foot, it remains stable on a cutting board.  You could also use this grater for fruit, cheese, and chocolate.  Find it HERE.
