I used to be a meat and potato kinda gal... Until I met my husband, who had every spice and every pot known to man... I then discovered GOOGLE! I was a small town girl, a traveling nurse, who had three low main thence  necessities for cooking: (I still argue that this is all one REALLY needs...haha!) 1) the frying pan... Anything needing to be cooked on the stove goes in the pan! 2) the pizza pan... Anything needing to be cooked in the oven goes on the pizza pan! (If it needs a cover, use foil... It the pot above needs a cover, put the pizza pan over the fry pan... GENIOUS!) 3) a small dipper (sauce pan)... In case you need to boil water for company wanting a cup of tea, or some other small thing needing to boil, like rice...Â
