    Big sharp chef's knife
    Iron Skillet

    When I split up with the ex, I actually told him "I get the kids, and the iron skillets. Anything else you want you can have."

    My actual necessities list is bigger than two though:

    Big Knife
    Iron Skillets
    Pot to cook rice/soup
    Cutting board
    Serving Spoon
    Metal Spatula
    Sheet Pan for oven
    Whisk

    I think I could do 95% of what I do with just those; probably 50% with just the skillet, knife and spatula.

    My scale has been crucial for losing the last 11 vanity pounds..

    Other than that, my nutra ninja, my kettle and my water filter are most used/loved!

    A variety of good sharp knives and a good skillet. I have a new favorite skillet which is great for a single person. A ceramic 8 in by Silver Stone. Got it on Amazon. Really no stick. I use no Pam and just brush it lightly with oil before I use. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00K8PQ9SE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    One other thing - a container that keeps romaine fresh until I use it up. Best I've found is by Progressive. (Prepworks by Progressive Lettuce Keeper - 4.7 Quart) - I've had fresh romaine in it and then left for ten days and when I came back the romaine was just as fresh as when I left. Just don't put it in the dishwasher - makes the lid shrink.

    Digital scale (grams!) and Wusthof knife set (large and medium chef knives and paring knife).
    Runner-up: Cuisinart non-stick saute pan.
    Honorable mention to Staub grill pan, Le Creuset Dutch oven, and BlendTec blender.

    I'm not including a scale because that has always been a kitchen essential for me. My recipe books all have grams or ounces for ingredients rather than cups.

    So that leave my steamer and my crockpot as the two most used pieces of equipment in my kitchen.
