14. A can opener that doubles as a bottle opener for all your meal prepping needs.
15. A 34-piece set of Rubbermaid food containers so that you easily organize all of the food that you've prepped for the week. These are especially great because they nestle inside one another for simple storage when they're not filled with yummy food.

20. And some color-coded cutting boards, which are slim and non-slip and will complete the cross-contamination-preventing picture.
21. A food processor that'll make chopping and grinding a breeze. That shredder attachment is a lifesaver for carrot cake, hashbrowns, and even shredding cheese.

27. An electric griddle so you can easily cook up your week's worth of chicken while the stove top is full.
28. An eco-friendly set of electric salt and pepper shakers that automatically get to grinding the moment you flip them upside down — perfect for when your hands are dirty from meal prepping.
