Revolutionize Your Kitchen Routine by Ceci Carmichael

(NAPSI) -Savvy moms look for ways to update their lifestyles and often rely on the latest tools to keep their households running smoothly.

Here are a few innovative tricks and tools you can use to transform your kitchen routine for better results.

Arm Yourself with Apps

Smartphone applications, such as those on the Apple iPhone®, can be functional as well as entertaining. Many have been developed to solve even the toughest of kitchen quandaries. For instance, there are apps that do kitchen measurement conversions and apps with fast, healthy recipes.

So whether you need a new way to calculate conversions or to get a leg up on your meal plans, download a few to have on hand.

Upgrade to Hands-Free Appliances

Bring your kitchen into the 21st century by replacing old appliances with new, touchless appliances. There are paper towel dispensers and trash cans that are activated with the wave of a hand and sink faucets that turn on with the tap of an elbow.

An added bonus--less contact with surfaces around your kitchen means reduced cross contamination and cleanup time.

Chore Lists of the Future

Does the state of your kitchen suffer when left in the hands of your family members? Don't count on sticky notes or verbal instructions for your family. Use a fridge magnet that records videos to leave detailed, visual instructions on what to clean and how to cook. Forgotten chore lists can now be things of the past.

Automate Kitchen Cleanup

Eighty percent of women wished they had ways to shorten the amount of time spent cleaning up after a meal without sacrificing quality.

With all dishwashing detergents changing to phosphate-free formulations, this can be a good time to change your routine and try the new revolutionary FINISH Quantumatic. It can transform your cleanup routine because it dispenses detergent so powerful you'll never need to pre-rinse. The innovative, refillable detergent dispenser delivers an unbeatable clean and amazing shine automatically for 12 individual washes.
