The cook's tools will help you to help the world with less chemicals, and more organic and eco-friendly products for living and cooking.



HERE: 18 Green Recipes & Cooks Tools

Smashed Potatoes With Garlic Pesto
{ Vegan & Gluten Free }
Get ready for crispy, tender potatoes with major flavor. When I stop counting carbs, this is a must make!
Minimalist Baker 

Bambu Cutting Boards
Create art in the kitchen. These boards are handcrafted from sustainably harvested bamboo. They have been finished with a light coat of natural food safe oil and nothing else. You will also find that they are dual purposed. Cut on one side and serve canapés on the other. 
Amazon 

Green Goddess Pizza
This is basically a delicious salad with one giant crouton! The dressing? It's homemade pesto sauce. Yum!
Well & Full 

Lemongrass Ginger Cleaning Set
A clean home is a happy home. The Countertop Spray Set  has natural cleansers and essential oils. There's no harsh chemicals or parabens. It's gentle on the skin and smells as fresh as Springtime.
Williams- Sonoma 

The Mean Green Detox Salad
I have been hearing a good deal about detoxing. We probably all need to do it. This salad is so beautiful, it doesn't look like we will suffer while we are at it. This simple mixed salad has a base of kale, broccoli, purple cabbage, cilantro, grapefruit and avocado. It all gets tossed in a lemony tahini dressing.

Half Baked Harvest


Healthy Living (8 Piece Set)
Did you know that you could better enjoy your salads, oils and herbs? This set makes it possible by extending the life of your herbs and provides so many ways to utilize your oils. Then there's the Salad Chopper and those Herb Shears. They will help you to prepare your dishes more professionally. Made of BPA free plastic.
AHAlife   

Spaghetti with Arugula Pesto
A simple supper that is just so Spring green! 
Williams-Sonoma 

Caffe Britt Shade Grown Organic Coffee
Not being a coffee drinker, I admit that I didn't know about "shade grown" coffee beans. These coffee bean plants have been grown under a canopy of trees. Most importantly, these plants require little or no chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or herbicides. Good for our bodies!
Amazon  

Chinese Salad Spring Rolls
Fast, easy, and somewhat healthy. They are easy to eat on the run (no fork necessary), especially if you make them ahead of time. 
Bakers Royale   

GreenPan
 Sur La Table has partnered with GreenPan to create a superior line of ceramic non-stick cookware. Each piece is packed with cook friendly and eco-friendly details and designs. The safe and non toxic ceramic coating is completely free of PFOA, PFAS and persistent pollutants as well as lead and cadmium.....which are all bad things.
Sur La Table 

Avocado Hummus Dip
A clever combo that I'm not mad about. It's so bright and right for crudités, bread, and chips.
Delish

Eco-Friendly Cleaning Kit
Here's a green way to clean. This set of tools gets your organic produce squeaky clean. Both pieces are made of bamboo, recycled plastic and walnuts. Very handy!

Vegan Mint Matcha Shamrock Shake
A healthy take on the classic Shamrock Shake. Don't worry, it is still creamy, minty and refreshing. It's just healthier than you will find at the Golden Arches. For those who care (and we all should ) it is refined sugar free.

Large Marble Mortar & Pestle
A great way to cut down on salt is to mix up some fresh herbs. The minimalist marble mortar is perfect for making pesto, peanut butter, and guacamole. Your tastebuds will thank you for this purchase!

Basil Parsley Pumpkin Seed Pesto Pasta with Grilled Chicken and Olives
Gluten Free
This recipe is as tasty and healthy as it is beautiful. The dressing is your pesto, which sounds divine.

Staub in Pine
These elegant enameled vessels are Cadmium, Lead, PFOA and PTFE Free​. That is a whole lot of chemicals that none of us need in our food. 

Green Chile and Tomatillo Corn Bread 
It's easy to go green with this Tex-Mex inspired recipe. Corn bread can take a little heat on St. Patrick's Day and beyond.

Chilewich
Glam green. This woven runner is both glam and modern made with Chilewich's vinyl called "Terrastrand." It's 100% phthalate free and contains 25% renewable vegetable content. It looks good and does good. Every square yard of this fabric saves .02 gallons of petroleum and .41 of CO2. That's a good thing.
