I’ve posted a few cooking videos on the blog, and it seems like every time I do someone always asks if they can get a full tour. Our kitchen is certainly not perfect or up to model home standards, but we have worked hard to organize and stock it with just about everything we need to make real food. So just for fun here’s a look inside some of our cabinets including our kitchen’s best kept secret …the back pantry! With the kids back in school it’s the perfect time to work on getting organized, so hopefully this will give you some ideas.
Also if you want to see more detail about any of my kitchen tools that you saw in the video be sure to check out My Kitchen Essentials page.
I love the bricks! And totally envy all those drawers!
what are the best pans to use for muffins or cookies? Thank you so much for all the great tips…I’m learning so much and looking forward to reading your new book!
Hi there. Lisa prefers stainless steel. I know that: http://mightynest.com/ has some. ;)
If you’re using stainless steel, you can prevent most sticking by NOT cooking on high heat.
Medium High will do the trick, and avoid sticking!
It took a long time for me to figure out that really works!!
Thanks will definitely try it.
Lisa, I love the backsplash and curtain combination! Beautiful kitchen. When I remodeled the kitchen in my old house we put in a lot of drawers too. They’re so much more functional than cabinets.
I think I spied a Wonder bread sandwich cutter in the lunch making supply drawer. Made me laugh because if it really was from Wonder there’s no way you bought the bread to get it! Ha ha.

Thanks for the video! It was very helpful. One thing I would like to learn more about is the pans you cook with. Do you have any brands you recommend? Also, do you have any tips to help avoid food sticking to pans? That always seems to happen for me.
Thanks again!
Pans look to me like All-Clad stainless…I have a few and I really love them. Macy’s sells them, they are pretty expensive (try to catch them on sale) but worth it and will last forever! Most everything from All-Clad is made in USA except for the specialty pans like the turkey roasting pan and a few others.
Thanks I’ll look for All-Clad.
Hi Kerrie. You can find Lisa’s pans here: https://www.100daysofrealfood.com/my-kitchen-essentials/. And this might help: http://missvickie.com/howto/cooking101/secret.htm. :)
I use an old dish draining wire rack for Tupperware lids. You could also use the file holders. It makes finding the lids even faster!
LOVE your kitchen. Thanks for sharing :)
Pottery Barn had those type of white bowls last year. Maybe you can try there for the white ones.
Loving your new book, Congratulations! Could you please tell me where you located that lovely white set of nesting bowls. I checked amazon and cannot locate them – thank you.
Thank you! I got them from Williams-Sonoma, but it was a long time ago.
