Pampered chef favorite products?

I use my measure all cup every day and they have different sizes.
The mini spatula is another favorite.
Not sure of the name but the long thin spatula for spreading icing is great. I have it the long and little size.

I often use the microwave pots. The small to reheat stuff and for canned veggies, the larger I make my rice in all the time.

Of course I bought mine (new) at thrift stores for a buck or two so I'm not aware of their price directly from PC.

I think they must be one of the lower cost items as I seem to see them and the shaped bread tubes most often. My thought is that people use those as their obligatory (cheapest) purchase and then ditch them.

The mixing bowl/measuring bowl thing and the chopper.

chopper, mini spatula, sandwich press thingy (do they still have that), the clay baking things (but i don't use due to storage space)

surely they have some new items over the past decade or two!

I bought one of the microwave pots 20 years ago for exactly that reason - my supervisor was having a "catalog party", and I felt obligated... Wel,, that darn thing is still one of the most-used things in my cabinet.

That little square plastic dish scraper thingy is another shockingly useful item. I'd easily pay $20 to replace it now, though it can't be worth more than a buck or two. It is the greatest thing EVER!

SockMonkey mentioned a gizmo for chopping up ground meat as you are cooking it. That thing rocks.

I bought that damn ground-beef-breaking-up thing because everyone else raves about it, but I used it once and thought, why?!  Anyway, I just finally gave it away. PolarGreen12

I loved the one piece of Rock Crock (high-fired pottery that goes everywhere, even on the stove top and under the broiler) I had, but eventually I broke it and it’s too expensive to replace. I got the original piece at half-price.

Besides that (and less expensive) my most used PC items are a couple of the mini muffin pans. It holds 24 apiece, and I’ve used them a gazillion times over the years.

oh, and the batter bowl ... I use that a lot, too. And a small plastic cutting board, like bar-sized, I think. Use that daily.

I just ordered from an online party and I’m getting one of those microwave cooking pieces (you’re right, PLurker, it wasn’t very expensive) to see how I like it. I’m also getting one of those brownie pans with the little square cups ... I’ve been craving one of those. Now let’s see if I actually use it. 

kate are you talking about the small brown scrapper for the stoneware? If you are I have a bunch of them and could mail you one.

With kids at home and no doubt countless pans of various bars and Rice Krispy treats, etc. just do yourself a favor and buy about 3-4 of those little mini metal (or nylon, if you have some Teflon coated pans) spatulas. I use those things all.the.time.

The meat thing is awesome for tacos, spaghetti meat sauce or anything where you want more finely crumbled cooked ground meat.

I love, love, LOVE the little one cup glass prep bowls with the lids and wish I had the two cup ones too.

The little hand chopper is nice for chopping up small quantities of things. It is a bit of a PITA to clean because you have to take it all apart, but it does come all apart quite easily to do so.

Get a few of those little plastic scraper widgets, they come in handy to scrape globs of congealed grease or gunk out of a pan.

I also like the small metal strainer with a handle, I use that fairly often too.

Those are probably the things I use the most. One thing I don’t like is the silicone
whisk. The stupid handle on that thing is so heavy it won’t stay in the bowl of stuff you’re whisking and it always falls out and makes such a mess.

That must mean you are successful browning ground beef with a spatula. I never was, so the mix n chop changed my life.

I also like the one cup prep bowls like crazy4scraps .  The offset spatula (I think that's the for frosting thing) is nice, too-- in addition to using it to frost cakes, I like to use it to smooth out layers when I make baked ziti or a lasagna.

It's a little silly, but I'm really happy with the bamboo toast tongs.  (They're like three bucks or something.)  Every time I toast a bagel, I burn my fingers and then remember I bought a tool for this! Yay!

I like the sheet pans I have from them-- I have the "regular" sized one (10x13?) and a little quarter sheet one. The quarter sheet works well if you're heating something for one or two, so I don't know if you'll have a lot of use for it in a family of six, although I think it will fit a toaster oven if you've got one of those.

And I like the little bar cutting board from them.  I have two and I use them for prep all the time.

Oh, also-- their microplane zester.  It's fabulous for freshly grated parmesan on foods (and it's a great zester).

I love their rubber spatulas .

I haven’t ordered anything PC in ages. My favorite thing is probably the micro cookers. They last forever and are one of their less expensive items.

I actually just found a stone loaf pan that I have never used! I had to have bought it at least 12 years ago! I wasnʻt sure if it would still be good. I guess Iʻm just paranoid because I never used stoneware like that. Do I need to "treat" it any way before I use it? It wasnʻt in the box and I actually contemplated just throwing it out since all the donation stores here are closed.
