10 Gift Ideas from Pampered Chef

I adore having Pampered Chef in my kitchen, its sturdy and cooks so well. So here are my top 10 gift ideas for someone who wants pampered chef but hasn't gotten their collection started!

My personal favorites are stoneware. so that's where I start. I've included the most used items I have in my kitchen.

- Rectangle stone for $ 26.50. Perfect for use as a cookie sheet. Its great for baking artisan breads, cookies, baking fries, and any other reason you would need a flat cook stone.
- Deep Dish Baker Casserole dish $38.00. This dish is great for making pies and casseroles.
- Rectangular Baker $38.00 . Here is your traditional cake pan. I use mine for baking cakes and other deserts like cookie bars and crisps.
- 12-Cup Muffin Pan $34.50. This sturdy dish wont break down when you are making muffins.
- Deep Covered Baker - White - $69.00 - This is smiler to the deep dish baker on it has a lid. Great for baking chicken, or other dishes you need covered.
- Round Stone with Handles - Large $29.50. Can anyone deny the usefulness of a pizza stone? No matter if you are making home made pizza or picking up a frozen one or a premed unbaked pizza. A pizza stone is fantastic and used often in my house.

Another item I really love that pampered chef makes is bamboo. Its an amazing item, it grows so fast, its super strong, easy to clean. Its one of those easily used resources that doesn't hurt the environment. And I like it much better then plastic or metal utensils. The other thing that is amazing about bamboo is it doesn't absorb moisture. So your sauces' favor wont stick to the utensil.

- Bamboo Spoon Set $9.50 3 bamboo spoons. I use these to stir everything. Juices to sauces. Then use them to serve whatever I'm cooking. Soups, spaghetti, and dressings. I also use them when I'm baking cakes and other dishes.

- Large Bamboo serving Platter $39.00. Whenever I'm having company over, I really like being able to arrange my deserts or dinners on a platter. This large bamboo serving platter does the job perfectly. I can fit quite a bit of food on it.

-Reversible Bamboo Carving Board $69.50. A cutting broad. This is probably the one item I use MORE then anything else in my kitchen. When I'm making stir fry, I can chop the meat on one side, flip it over and chop my veggies on the other. Its so easy to clean, stuff just wipes right off. I have even left if standing in water on accident and the cutting board DIDN'T split. It broke my traditional wood board, But the bamboo one was perfect! - Bamboo salt and pepper Grinder Stand Set $52.00. OK so its not a necessity. But I really loving this. It's pretty, decorative, useful. Its one of those cute little gifts that most woman really enjoy having. I can put them on a table for general every day use, and set them out when I'm having company and it looks great no matter what.

Now the last thing that I like so much that they have is a Collapsible serving bowl. 4 quarts. $20.00 . This bowl is great. I like large serving bowls and this one really works well, plus its collapsible which means it fits in the cupboard so much easier.

I hope some of my personal favorites help you to start your collection. It really is a great company and the products are just beautiful.
