1. Take a page or two from a cookbook full of over 1,000 recipes — all with fewer than four steps or six ingredients.
Get it from Amazon for $10.81.
Promising review: "I hate, I mean truly hate, cooking... until this cookbook came into my life. Every recipe turns out exactly as it should, is tasty and beyond simple. My husband always did the cooking but he became ill and the chore fell to me. After months of takeout I found this cookbook and find myself actually looking forward to meal planning and cooking. It's the only way to cook." —Randi
3. Make meal prepping so much easier by packing your food in a 21-piece set that tells you exactly how much a "handful" of almonds actually is.
Get it from Amazon for $9.95.
Promising review: "I really like these containers. I have a few sets of them so I can pre-pack my portions. Even on days when I am not keeping strictly to the number of containers, I can still get the right amount of veggies in! I even use this to teach my kids what a portion looks like. They sometimes tell me one strawberry counts as their fruit serving or a single leaf of spinach. This helps them feed their bodies more healthfully, too! The great product plus the above-and-beyond customer service make this a solid investment." —Sarah

Promising review: "It looks even more beautiful in person. It is the perfect size for what I was looking for. It was super easy to assemble as well; the only thing you have to do is spin the metal piece into the base and the glass, and it was all set. I've gotten many compliments on this table because of the modern look!" —Krysten Robinson

Promising review: "A great pouch while running, walking or working out. The pouch sits on the front or back of your waist band, held in place with a flap with strong magnetic strips that you tuck inside your shorts/trousers. Constructed very well & feels very secure while running. The pouch also has a second compartment for passport, credit cards, cash etc. This product could also be used on vacation for keeping your phone/passport/hotel key safe." —Aido
10. Organize your outfits the night before on a bamboo garment rack with plenty of space for shoes and accessories.
Get it from Amazon for $45.99.
Promising review: "It is an excellent value. I use the rack to organize my clothes/bags/meeting materials for the week so I can grab-and-go. It is attractive and doesn't need to be hidden. The rack is very sturdy, but keep in mind that it is not a steel rack. It is very functional for it's intended use. The number of pieces was initially daunting, but after taking a few minutes to organize assembly, it was quite easy. Two people could probably assemble in 20 minutes. It's clear that the rack was manufactured with an eye for quality." —LeeLa
