360 Cookware Giveaway: Trim Your Waist Line While Greening Your World

360 Cookware 1 Quart Sauce Pan Giveaway

Three 360 Cookware 1 Quart Sauce Pan Giveaway!

I have a confession to make.  The part I dislike the most about cooking is cleaning up.  Am I right, girlfriend?  And no one can make a bigger mess than me.  But when stainless steel cookware like 360 Cookware comes along and nothing sticks to it, cooking has become fun again. And get this.  No oil needs to be added to the pan!
360 Cookware

To add to the fun 360 Cookware offered to give away three 1 quart sauce pan to my Green Talk readers.  Aren’t you all lucky dogs?  They figured why should I be the only one having so much fun?

Anna, come’on.  What is wrong with Teflon?

But before I get into the contest, I just want to explain why I hate Teflon pots. According to the Environmental Working Group,

“In two to five minutes on a conventional stovetop, cookware coated with Teflon and other non-stick surfaces can exceed temperatures at which the coating breaks apart and emits toxic particles and gases linked to hundreds, perhaps thousands, of pet bird deaths and an unknown number of human illnesses each year, according to tests commissioned by Environmental Working Group (EWG).”

No PTFE for me, folks.

But No Oil.  Are you Kidding?

Yes.  You heard me right.  No oil is need to cook delicious food.  How do I know?  First I watched a live cooking demonstration and interviewed Greg Wayman, the Vice President of Sales about the 360 Cookware.  But just in case Greg is a magician and pulled a fast one on me, the Company wanted  me to check it out myself.

I admit. I am no Barefoot Contessa or Giada in the kitchen.  But I found that that my food really tasted good without the added oil.  See the below video as a I cook meat for the cavemen (ie my carnivore men/children of my family) and then onions an peppers in order to make Tofu Tacos.

Still not convinced?  Check out the Company’s demonstration video.

How Does this Work?

The secret behind this cookware is vapor technology.  The Company states

“Vapor Technology allows you to cook utilizing a low to medium heat because the design and metal are so efficient that your food permeates evenly from all sides, allowing food to cook in its own natural juices without the excess water or grease other skillets and saucepans require.”

Think a pot and semi-pressure cooker in one.  Similar to a pressure cooker, it seals in the juices of the food.  However, it doesn’t cook the food as quickly as a pressure cooker.

Why Do I Love this Pot?

    I don’t necessarily love it, but I think I make Macaroni and Cheese at least 4 times a week. 🙂

    I think my favorite thing to make is brownies – I melt the chocolate squares on the stove. I always underbake them, too. Yum.

    I “liked” the 360 Cookware page. I “liked” the Green Talk page. I’ve joined the email newsletter list. My favorite stove dish is a three-way tie between spaghetti, grilled cheese sandwiches, and scrambled eggs. All from whole foods of course.

    – 4 artichoke hearts, cut into bite size pieces (if you buy the one’s in the jar, rinse them first to remove other additives like salt)
    – 3 C ground up cauliflower – use a food processor to get the cauliflower to a rice-like consistency
    – 3 scallions, thinly sliced
    – 1/4 C fresh chopped parsley
    – 1 Tbsp fresh chopped basil
    – 1/2 tsp cinnamon
    – 1/2 tsp cayenne
    – 1/2 tsp oregano (ground)

    Directions

    In a large pot, bring stock plus 2 cups of water to a rolling boil
    Reduce heat and add all other ingredients
    Simmer for about 10 minutes or until zucchini is cooked
    Enjoy!

    I like 360 Cookware’s Facebook fan page and my (family’s) favorite dish for me to cook on the stove is chicken and dumplings. They’d be happy to have it once a week if I’d make it that often.

    I love any type of veggie omelet. I almost always have an extra helping of veggies on the side. It makes the plate more colorful.

    I like them on Facebook.

    I’m not sure which is the problem but either my stove top or current cookware deter me from cooking anything on the stove. Everything smokes. :/ I tried to cook an egg and on the lowest setting it was smoking. After having a pot of oil burst into flames I’m not ok with anything smoking!
    Anyway, my favorite thing for my husband to cook on the stove top is bacon.

    Maybe I’m weird, but I just love making eggs and bacon. You’d think it would be easy to make eggs. However, I have tried 7 different pans and I can’t find one that won’t make it difficult for me to get my eggs out without breaking the yolk! It’s a nightmare, ‘cuz even the ones that say you don’t need spray or oils have issues. Anyway, there’s my truth.
