George Foreman grill. Next to a microwave I can’t think of anything else you need in the kitchen. And spices are complicated and take some time to know but they are your friends. Meat and veggies. What else is there? YUM! However, I still do the elaborate, wreck-the-kitchen pasta or comfort food deal once a week. ;)
I have no room on my counter for a George Forman grill. I have never heard a bad thing about them, so one day I may venture out and make the purchase.
