Favorite Kitchen Tools for Taco Dinners

  • I love, love, love these oven-proof and grill-proof Taco Holders! They're one of my favorite taco night accessories. They can go from the oven to the table or just be a handy way to keep everything together when you're assembling tacos. It's a two-pack, and each tray holds six tacos.
  • 18x13 Half-Sheet Rimmed Baking Sheets: I have six of these cookie sheets and I bought them 13 years ago. I LOVE them! They are stainless steel professional grade sheets that are warp resistant. I use them for cookies, brownies, sheet pan dinners and baking bacon. They're an essential tool in my kitchen.​
  • My Deep Dish 9x13 Ceramic Baking Pan is perfect for casseroles, Magic Cookie Bars, cakes and more.​
  • 7 qt. Crock Pot - I have multiple slow cookers, but my reach-for-it-first favorite gets used at least once a week and usually more. It's the most basic manual Crock Pot available, and I love it the most. It's the easiest way to cook Mississippi Pot Roast, delectable Ham, loaded Potato Soup, comforting and satisfying Beef Stew, easy Meatloaf and more.
  • My 12" Cast Iron Skillet - It makes heavenly fried potatoes. I can bake jalapeno popper dip in it and it's truly essential to almost every meal I make year-round. But, this is especially handy in the winter for comfort-food cooking like these Meatballs in Brown Gravy. It can be used on the stovetop and in the oven, so it's incredibly versatile.
