If you stress watching MasterChef because cooking is not your thing, rather you are looking for optimal results in the shortest possible time (and without effort), eating poorly does not have to be the general trend. You can get the right tools to get delicious dishes in a matter of minutes and without complicated elaborations.
From a steamer that facilitates the task of eating healthy, to a simple vegetable spirilizer, to classics for cooking in the microwave like Lekué, they are a good addition without investing too much money to enjoy delicious and fast dishes. These are some examples:

An electric steamer
We started with this electric steamer to make vegetables, rice and other foods without too much effort and also, conserving their nutrients and vitamins. A proposal from Cecotec that has a specific design with a capacity of one liter to cook rice and a stainless steel base.
The how to use is simple: you have a light and sound indicator when cooking is finished, it has a timer for up to 60 minutes and a water indicator (with two side inlets in case we have to add a little more during cooking). In addition, it has a heat-keeping function. We found it today on Amazon for 42.90 euros.

An oil-free fryer
Oil-free fryers can be a good addition to our kitchen, as long as we are clear that they are not a miracle product and that they fulfill their function in a simple way. An appliance that has a capacity of 6 liters, 11 different programs which include the possibility of programming cooking up to 4 hours before and the ability to keep our food warm once cooked.
It is also perfect for beginners since thanks to its Wi-Fi connection and the app, we can choose from more than 100 recipes to cook easily. We have it on Amazon for 159.99 139.99 euros.

A gadget from Lekué for the microwave
This steam case from the brand Lékué It is already a classic of fast cooking (perfect for lazy people). It is a container made of 100% high-quality platinum silicone and plastic-free with which the “papillote” effect is achieved, which maintains the flavor of the ingredients in the microwave.
With it we can prepare vegetables or fish easily, quickly and with hardly any dirt on your kitchen or annoying odors. We found it on Amazon for 32.90 euros (with capacity for 3-4 people per serving).

A vegetable cutter
If cutting the vegetables is a nuisance and you also want to create that spaghetti effect in your zucchini or carrots, take a look at this spirilizer. A model with three types of blades to cut various vegetables.
The high-quality ABS plastic (BPA-free) blades are easy to change and their compact design takes up minimal space in the kitchen. In addition, once used we can put it in the dishwasher. It has the black Amazon’s Choices recommendation label and we have it for only 9.99 euros.

A slow cooker
Prepare the stews at your grandmother’s level Hardly any effort (or almost) is possible with a slow cooker like this one from Crock-Pot. It is a manual pot with two power levels, made of red ceramic that allows it to be used in the oven and has a dishwasher-safe glass lid.
Its capacity is small so it is ideal if you live alone or as a couple, specifically 3.5 liters and the manufacturer itself promises easy disassembly and cleaning. We also have it on offer today on Amazon for 69.90 29.90 euros.
