The KitchenAid standing mixer is one of my favorite kitchen appliances in my house. This appliance can do so much more than mix dough. For example, I love to mix up my meatloaf and meatball ingredients in my standing mixer. I also love to use it to make guacamole.
And once you start getting some of the KitchenAid attachments, then you will have one of the most versitile appliance around.
Number 2 is actually several gift ideas in one because a cook who already has the KitchenAid Standing Mixer would love any one of these attachments. Below are a list of my favorite attachments although, if you click on the KitchenAid link you will find even more attachments available:
I like to make freezer meals in bulk, but I don’t love cutting all the vegetable at once that go into multiple recipes. The Vegetable Slicer/Shreddermakse slicing vegetable so much easier!
This is a slow cooker AND a Pressure Cooker, AND a Saute and Steamer ALL IN ONE! I have this one, and let me tell you, this thing cooks sooo evenly. My food comes out tender and flavorful!
We actually use fun shaped muffin tins like these to not only make muffins, but also to make other foods like crustless omelet muffins. I love getting fun shaped trays and pans as a gift!
We use cookie cutters every week, and we hardly ever eat cookies. We use our cookie cutters to make fun shaped sandwiches and quesadillas. I love getting unique cookie cutters! Here is an idea…does your loved one have a favorite hobby? Get them cookie cutters that relate to their hobby!
