Essencial Tools

Chef's Knife: A high-quality, sharp chef's knife is an essential tool for any cook, and it is especially important for those following a Whole Food plant-based diet. A good knife will make it easier to chop vegetables, fruits, and other whole food ingredients.

Cutting Board: A durable cutting board is a must-have for chopping, slicing, and dicing fruits and vegetables. Look for a cutting board made of bamboo, wood, or plastic, and make sure it's large enough to accommodate your ingredients.

High-Speed Blender: A high-speed blender is an essential tool for making smoothies, soups, sauces, and nut milks. Look for a blender with at least 1000 watts of power and multiple speed settings for optimal blending.

Steamer Basket: A steamer basket is a helpful tool for cooking vegetables, grains, and legumes without losing their nutritional value. This tool can be used to prepare a variety of whole food plant-based meals, from steamed veggies to quinoa bowls.

Food Storage Containers: When following a whole food plant-based diet, it's important to have food storage containers on hand to store leftovers and prepped ingredients. Look for containers made of glass or BPA-free plastic, and choose a variety of sizes to accommodate different portions.
