Lose Weight Easily Using These Kitchen Tools

There are umpteen kitchen tools or gadgets available out there to make cooking easier. But have you wondered if any of them can help you lose weight?

Here's a list of some kitchen gadgets & tools that can aid weight reduction:

Measuring cups and spoons- They aren't just for measuring ingredients for your recipes but can also be used for portion control and help you count calories easily. Using measuring cups can help you ensure you don't end up blowing your calorie budget.

Kitchen Scale-For those larger food items that wouldn't fit in measuring cups or spoons, you have a small kitchen scale which comes handy. Use one to get an exact measurement of grains, cheeses and other foods that add a lot of calories.

Fridge Organizers- They can help your pantry organized as well as help you keep track of what you're eating.

Lemon Zester- It helps add flavors to your food from limes, oranges, and lemons. You can replace lemon zest for fat or salt and thereby prevent weight gain.

Spiralizer- This is a very efficient tool that can whip vegetables into noodles. This can help you cut back on carbs and make you consume more nutrients while you still enjoy that pasta texture.

Oil Spritzer- Although some oils can be healthy, if you use a lot of it for cooking, it could rack up your calories. This handy tool can help reduce the amount of oil you use for cooking.

Rice cookers- Compared to other carbohydrates, rice is better for losing weight. Some rice cookers also come with a vegetable steamer attachment which you can use to have tasty vegetables with your rice.

Blender- This can help you blend healthy foods together. You can just sip your weight loss meal. Just throw some fruits, vegetables, almond milk, almond butter, peanut butter or your favorite protein supplement into the blender and serve your perfectly shippable breakfast/lunch/dinner.

Air Fryer- You can enjoy all your favorite fried foods without feeling guilty since it takes about 90% lesser oil to make your favorite French fries or other fried delicacies. Thanks to the brilliant minds of kitchen tech that has introduced the air fryers to us.

Airtight Glass Food Storage Containers- When you have enough containers around, with healthy foods stored, it helps you plan your meals better and stick to your weight loss goals. You can also buy mixing bowls with lids that you can use to store a large batch of salad, cut up fruits, beans and grains.

Non-stick Baking Trays- They can be used to make food healthy (roasted vegetables, meats, etc) without consuming much cooking oil.
