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!
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!
You can find these tools and WAY MORE over on eBay’s Starter Kits! 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.

Or you can pursue other passions here! Apparently there are other things in life other than eating and cooking, although I have yet to discover them! (wink, wink!)

They are all fantastic but going with the CAST IRON SKILLET not only for the healthy cooking but memories of my Mom as we traveled for over 20 years with the military and she had two cast iron pans a large and a cute mini.
She has passed away for many years now and still we all have our favorite dishes we recall that were cooked in it. From scratch corn beef hash (which till I was 20 years old never knew they came in cans!) to even a dessert with fruits in it.
CAST IRON SKILLET my choice. Thanks for this fun opportunity.
Hey Gabby!
I love your blog & following you on snap chat is great!! I’d loveeee to win the Juicer, Vitamix, or Veggie Slicer!
Thanks,
Kim
Hi Gaby,
I would love to win the vitamix! I am trying hard to eat healthy but have the biggest sweet tooth!!
Vitamix!!!!!!! I’ve now resorted to begging for one since my not-so-subtle hints haven’t worked a bit.
I didn’t think it would be this hard to pick a favorite!! But the juicer. Most definitely the juicer. I see my life changing forever with that bad boy. 🙂
I would love the Vitamix!
Obsessed with my global knives, I use them every day. You can never have too many though! But the ultimate for me would be a Vitamix, it’s been on my wishlist forever!!
A good knife is a must have and makes all the difference!
Hi Gaby!
I would LOVE the Vitamix!
Oh my goodness. You’re like a cooking fair God mother. I would love love love to win the knives, the spiralizer, and the cast iron skillet.
P.S
My birthday is tomorrow (January 19th).
(Fingers crossed!)
That vitamin and mandolin slicer are calling my name. They have been on the wish list for a long time!
I would absolutely love the VITAMIX!! It even goes with the red theme in my kitchen! 🙂
I would LOVE a Vitamix! I have wanted one for years!!! With having a toddler in the house, we make a ton of smoothies, I have a feeling our current blender is going to fizzle out on us any moment!
Definitely the Vitamix 5300! It’s been on my wish list for a while, and in the meantime I’ve had to get by with my inferior “regular” blender. Once I get my own I can’t wait to whip up more soups, smoothies, juices, and sauces all year long…of course using all of Gaby’s delicious recipes! Please don’t let me live without a Vitamix for too much longer! Hugs, Angelica
I love my cast iron pan but would love to have the Vitamix or some quality knives!
Your website is one of my favorites to find yummy and healthy recipes. Plus your pictures are beautiful!
Vitamix! I have heard they are life changing.
I would love love love to have a VitaMix!! I’ve been wanting one to up my smoothie and soup game for so long!!
I would love a Vitamix blender. I have wanted one for ages.
I am dying for a Vitamix but a cast iron skillet would be great too!
Any great chef must have great knives!
Okay, so I stumbled across your Insta page after a post from Minka Kelly about your snapisodes – and every since then I’ve been hooked! I started by following you on Snapchat, and I love the format of the snapisodes. It even inspired me to make my own snapisode while cooking one night. Last week I tried my first WhatsGabyCooking recipe – sweet potato and black bean chili. The recipe was easy to follow and really delicious (and definitely helped make my first ever Sober January a little more bearable. 🙂 I currently live in a small condo and next weekend my fiance and I are moving in to our new house…. which means I FINALLY have space for more kitchen gadgets! I’ve always wanted a spiralizer – I make spaghetti squash all the time and am looking forward to mixing up my faux pasta options! I’m also a huge fan of making fries versus buying something frozen, and my mandoline is on it’s last leg so a new and improved one would be fabulous! Looking forward to checking out more WhatsGabyCooking creations and following along in 2016 on Snapchat, Insta, Pinterest and the blog! Thanks, Gaby! – Kristi

A Juicer AND a Lodge Cast Iron Skillet AND new Global Knives kinda sound like the dream giveaway combo.

The Vitamix has been on my wish list for a very long time. It’d be amazing to finally own one! I already have the mandoline, juicer, skillet, breville food processor and a spiralizer.
I currently own a set of great kitchen knives but the ones on the giveaway looks really amazing too!

I am in desperate need of the cast iron skillet! Just yesterday my tortilla press arrived in the mail and I’m getting prepared to start a tortilla making factory (in addition to many WGC dishes…)!
I have been craving a spiralizer..and have been so intrigued to try out a vitamix instead of my old blender!
I would be a very happy girl with the Vitamix and the juicer. Who doesn’t love new kitchen tools?
