Green Up Your Kitchen

Buying food locally is one way to be green (and healthier) in the kitchen. The next step is to choose cookware that is safe for your family and the environment. This Earth Day, cook ‘green’ with eco-friendly cookware from GreenPan.
What makes these products revolutionary is that they’re the first environmentally-friendly, PTFE-free, non-stick cookware constructed with Thermolon. Thermolon is a ceramic-based coating that can cook in extreme temperatures without damaging the product or breaking down over time. I like that GreenPan contains no toxic substances that can be released at high heat. This, along with the fact that Thermolon ovenware releases 60% fewer greenhouse gases than other non-stick products during production and is made from non-toxic raw materials that are recyclable or biodegradable is good news for moms and families everywhere.

Imagine the impact we could make if everyone made small changes like this in their kitchens.

Because this week we’re all about ‘green’, we’re giving away one set of GreenPan Bali series eco-friendly frying pans, valued at $80, to one of our lucky readers.
