From blogger Cara Fries… If you ask me, there is no better time than gathering around for family dinners. When I was younger, my family would eat dinner together every single night during the week, so as an (almost) newlywed, I want to make sure to carry on that tradition with my own family. For easy and fun at-home dinners, here are the Cuisinart products I recommend!
Whether you’re already married or starting to create a registry, finding the right products for family dinner traditions is key. These will be tools you will use for years on end and will help to always make those family dinners one to remember.
Cuisinart Air Fryer Toaster Oven My fiancé and I are huge foodies, so we like to start with some kind of appetizer before every meal, because, well, the more food the better! The Air Fryer Toaster Oven by Cuisinart is the perfect gadget to do so. You can make everything from chicken wings (our favorite!) to homemade mozzarella sticks and pizza. Air frying, which uses powerful ultra-hot air, is a healthier way to prepare delicious fried favorites without all the calories and messy cleanup. Tasty food and better for you?! It’s a win-win!
Cuisinart Elemental 13 Cup Food Processor with Dicing Another kitchen gadget that I can’t live without is a food processor. The Cuisinart 13 Cup Food Processor is perfect for large families or for making party food! I was shocked to see how much actually fit in this food processor when making pesto for my pesto shrimp! If it’s just the two of you, there is even an inner nested work bowl to make 4 cups instead of 13… The perfect amount for us. My fiance isn’t a big cooker, he tends to prefer the grill and the grill only, but even he commented on how easy and seamless the food processor was to use!
Cuisinart 12 Piece Multiclad Pro Triple-Ply Stainless Cookware Set Cuisinart has included everything you need in this 12-piece set to perfectly perform all the basic cooking tasks, large or small. From reheating a single portion of soup to preparing appetizers, entrees and side dishes for the entire family, you’ll find every tool you need in this deluxe set. I am a sucker when it comes to a good set of pots and pans (grown-up problems!) so when I first put these to use, I was instantly hooked. With 12 pieces, you’ll never run out of options for family mealtime.
Cuisinart Fruit Scoop As an avid sweets lover, this has got to be my favorite one yet. With the fully automatic Cuisinart Fruit Scoop, you can make healthy frozen desserts from just 100% fresh fruit or ice cream in just 25 minutes! We made some mint chip ice cream using all natural fresh ingredients and I have to say- it was 10x better than the store-bought kind. We both really love how easy this is to use, and would be such a fun activity to do with kids after dinner or on the weekend!
