I don't have a van yet, but I'm trying to plan which kitchen appliances are reasonable to bring and how many are too many. This is the ONLY area where I have difficulty down-sizing because I love to cook! Even so, I do want to keep it simple. Here's what I'd like to bring and would love your honest feedback. Too many? A reasonable variety?
1. Propane Camp Stove. Options include: (Links are just so you can see the item. I'm not affiliated!)
- single burner
- dual burner
- combo with one burner and a grill (From Amazon: Coleman 2 Burner Grill Stove Combo)
- combo with two two burners and an oven (like a toaster oven) (From Overstock)
2. Instant Pot (Pretty much an all in one when you have electricity.)
3. Electric Kettle (I hate microwaves and won't have one.)
4. NutriBullet (for smoothies and use as a mini-blender to make sauces, dressings, etc.,)
5. Toaster Oven (If I don't get the Coleman combo in #1). Good for reheating and making cookies!
So, what do you think? I'm wondering if the Instant Pot might be overkill for one person, but it's so versatile and would be a cold weather item when I don't want to go outside to cook!
