My Favorite Utensils...

Eating plant-strong sure requires a lot of chopping and dicing. For much of that, I often turn to my trusty Rada 'tomato slicer' knife. I use it to chop broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, tomatoes, onions, peppers, and mushrooms. It gets used to cut watermelon, cantaloupe, grapes, strawberries, and pineapples.

I think it is safe to say that this knife gets used several times every day.

Then, there's my good old Kitchen Aid kitchen scissors. It's even pink! I use that scissors to cut lettuce and other greens for salads. We like our salad greens chopped fairly small and that scissors is a real time-saver for that task.

Then, there is the set of cutting mats I bought a few years ago that have served their purpose well! I use them for most of my chopping and dicing jobs. They not only help to keep my knives from dulling too quickly, but they protect my counter top as well.
