6 Tools To Help Keep Your New Year’s Resolutions

Jump to Recipe

I think we’ve done a pretty great job the last 3 weeks here on WGC when it comes to keeping it mostly healthy and making it easy to stay on track with those New Year’s Resolutions! I’ve been loading up on salads, all sorts of fruits and vegetables and juicing up a storm.  Because of that, and because I love you guys a LOT, and because it’s the weekend (yaaaas)… I thought we should do a big giant giveaway today! I’m teaming up with eBay to bring you $500 worth of goodies to add to your kitchen tools and keep your healthy resolutions going strong!

6 Tools To Help Keep Your New Year’s Resolutions on Track!

But before we get to that… here are my 6 picks for things to keep you on track from eBay’s New Chef + Eating Healthy Starter Kits, to continue to inspire you to pursue your passions in the New Year:

Lodge Seasoned Cast Iron Kitchen Skillet – there’s nothing better for pan-searing a protein than a cast iron skillet! Don’t you love that crispy skin on salmon or chicken? It’s the best! If you already use a cast iron skillet than you should make this chicken ASAP and if you don’t cook with one, START! It will change your life and your cooking.

Spiral Vegetable Slicer – ugh. My spiralizer is EVERYTHING. I can’t get enough of the zucchini or sweet potato noodles. If you don’t have one in your life, you haven’t lived! Some of my favorite recipes include this and this.

Omega VRT350 Dual-Stage Vertical Single Auger Low Speed Juicer I’ve been obsessed with juicing for the last 3 years and it’s the BEST way to cram all sorts of nutrients into your body! I mean, if you haven’t seen my juice cleanse post yet… here ya go

Vitamix 5300 – I mean who doesn’t want to whip up a beautiful smoothie every morning? It’s my favorite way to start the day! 

Global 2 Piece Chef’s Starter Knife Set – I can’t STRESS the importance of good knives. I get my Globals sharpened every few months and it makes cooking and prepping food so much easier! Gotta have good knives for all those salads 

PL8 Professional Mandoline – want to make those fantastic fruit and veggie ribbons in this salad then you need a mandoline in your life immediately!

6 Tools To Help Keep Your New Year’s Resolutions on Track!

They are basically curated assortments of must-haves essential for all of us foodies trying to keep it mostly healthy after the holidays! eBay is a great place to find the best value on a wide selection of kitchen essentials to make your resolutions for the New Year a reality.

  6. Definitely the lodge seasoned kitchen cast iron skillet! I’ve heard great things about grilling, glazing, baking, building on flavors in a cast iron skillet and would be so delighted to have one!

  7. I would loooooove a slow juicer!!! I love making juice, but my sweet, cheap little target juicer is on its last leg! Lol The knives and cast iron skillet are also wonderful!!!

  11. After coming back from an amazing trip to Montego Bay, Jamaica, I am hooked on green smoothies. Having a Vitamix blender would be an awesome way to blend up my favorite smoothies; but also, have a great set of Global knives would help with cutting up those veggies & fruits.

  12. Hi Gaby!

    I would pretty much die if I won this, because I just graduated college and am moving into my first apartment. If I could have a Vitamix and a nice set of knives I can make a good majority of your incredible recipes. And yes, as you always say, I would LITERALLY die of happiness. I loved meeting and interviewing with you last summer, and hope you’re doing well! I love your snapchat episodes too, I’ve made almost all the recipes you’ve done! You’re the greatest!

    Best Regards,
    Ingrid Lund

  21. Hi Gaby,

    I already commented once but figured I should try again. I would love,love,love the vitamix. I love your site. I made your hummus and it was sooo good. I’m middle eastern and have had lots of hummous, your recipe was my fav, I think it had to do with pealing the chick peas. Great tip!

  24. Hi Gaby,
    I love your blog and especially am obsessed with your snapisodes! You’ve been a great inspiration to me as I start my own new food blog 🙂 I would absolutely love having a juicer and a spiralizer. I am always trying to increase my fruit and veggie intake and having a juicer also would be a great way to use up extra produce from the farmers market. I have been wanting to make your spicy peanut noodles with zucchini noodles so the spirilazer would help me get perfect shaped noodles. Thanks for making food and cooking so fun!
    Cheers,
    Sarah
