Xtrema Healthy Cookware Review and Giveaway






I love to cook, sometimes I am not the greatest at it and have a hard time coming up with new and exciting dinner ideas. I have had the same set of fry pans since my hubby and I got married almost 15 years ago. I think we might have bought 2 other pans somewhere in between, but a lot of my poor pans are wore out and things tend to stick in them when I'm not careful. I have never heard of healthy cookware before I ran across Xtrema. Xtrema offers a unique line of healthy, green and ceramic cookware that is versatile, durable and able to withstand high heat. Xtrema was generous to send me a 10" Skillet to review. The day I received it, we had a chicken meal planned for dinner and I seen this as the perfect opportunity to take this skillet for a test drive. First of all right off the bat, I noticed that you don't need to turn up the heat real high for this skillet. The recommended use is to put your skillet on your stove and let the pan heat up on medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes, which I did. I added olive oil to the pan to cook the chicken in and in no time that pan was hot and my olive oil sizzling. I really love this skillet because it has a nice even cook, instead of the middle of the pan being really hot and the sides being cool. All of the chicken cooked at the same time, which I haven't had happen in quite a while! This skillet is truly amazing to use and even easier to clean. I love the long handle too, it is long and stays cool to the touch. Another great feature of this Xtrema 10" Skillet is that is is non-scratch. I was reading the cleaning care instructions and it says you could use Soft Scrub and Brillo Pads and it won't scratch the pan. I am excited to try some of the other wonderful products from Xtrema is well. I can tell I will have my skillet to use around my home for a very long time to come.


The nice folks at Xtrema also sent me a 3 piece Tea Set, complete with a really nice ceramic mug, little tea pot and tea mug infuser. Hubby really loved this because he is the HUGE tea drinker in our house and was anxious to try out some of the loose leaf teas that he got for Christmas this year. I think the day we received this, he had about four cups of tea that evening and really enjoyed using the infuser. He said it was really easy to use. He uses the mug almost on a daily basis for his coffee. If he keeps it up, I will have to buy him some new loose leaf teas, because soon he will be out!
