In an ideal world, I would cook food at home as much as possible, experimenting with new ingredients or techniques and positioning myself for "Masterchef" success.

Unfortunately, things like social obligations and pure honest-to-goodness laziness usually get in the way.

If you often find yourself deferring to ordering takeout even when you have perfectly good ingredients in the fridge, or are helpless when it comes to using kitchen equipment, these appliances just might be your saving grace. 

Using them requires prep as minimal as chopping up ingredients and throwing in spices and sauces, so yes, you do still have to put in some work, but it's nothing compared to the full, "proper" way of cooking.

You can trick yourself or your guests into thinking you really paid your dues in the kitchen, but I'll know the secret to that delicious braise or pasta dish is one of the convenient devices below. Need something to make breakfast for you the next morning? We have you covered for that, too.

An upgraded version of everyone's favorite all-in-one cooker

Now with three new programs: egg, cook, and sterilize, the Instant Pot Duo Plus is a kitchen mainstay thanks to its ability to make pretty much anything. You'll have dinner ideas for days with this huge recipe collection or you can prep healthy dinners with this cookbook

A slow cooker that automatically switches to warm once the cook time completes and is easy to transport from place to place

Crock-Pot's slow cooker lets you set cook times of up to 20 hours, so you can come home at the end of the day to a hot meal waiting for you. Its locking lid has a rubber gasket to ensure your food won't spill, whether you're carrying it to your dinner table or taking it to a gathering. Slow cookers are perfect for both hearty meals and healthy dishes.
