When is the last time you looked at your kitchen pots and pans?
I mean, really looked at them?
A few months ago I realized ours were not in good shape. Their surfaces were getting rough and starting to peel – definitely not my idea of healthy eating for my family. I was in search of a new set of pots and pans, and with so many options out there I wasn’t sure which to choose.
Enter Calphalon.

Calphalon’s Contemporary Nonstick Cookware is simply amazing. It has all the features of a nonstick pan, the durability you’d expect from Calphalon, and it’s dishwasher safe! Our old set of pots and pans were hand-wash only, so to find a high-end set that was dishwasher-safe was quite the perk and time-saver. In addition, Calaphon’s Contemporary Nonstick Cookware also features:
- Heavy-gauge, hard-anodized aluminum to ensure even heating
- Triple layer, PFOA-free nonstick for lasting release
- Durable, cast stainless steel loop handles
- Oven safe capabilities to 450°F / 230°C
- A beautiful, contemporary design
- A full lifetime warranty
And did I mention they’re dishwasher safe?!
Not that you ever even need to wash these pans, by the way. They’re so super nonstick that we’ve found they rarely even need a wipe down after cooking, let alone a thorough washing. Depending on what I’m cooking, I’ve been able to get multiple meals out of our large skillet before needing to wash it because the food releases so cleanly that there’s nothing to wash!

Disclosure: I received Calphalon products to review at no cost to me. All opinions are my own.
While preparing dinner one night, I looked in my pan and thought, “Did I add pepper to this?”. Um, no! Needless to say, we are in need. The first thing I would make with a nee set would be fajitas.
This is great! I had no idea that calphalon had dishwasher safe pans.
Scrambled eggs for my kiddos. Daily meal around here!
Spaghetti and meatballs! A favorite in our house.
First thing I’d make, my husbands favorite pesto pasta!

Embarrassed to say that my husband does most of the cooking, so I can’t remember the last time I looked at our pans. I do know we haven’t bought any since we were married 13 years ago, so they are probably not looking great. Love that they are dishwasher safe!
I’d make cheesey eggs!
I would love to win – the first thing I’d make would be breakfast for my husband and son!

The first think I would make is a quesadilla!
I would make a quesadilla! They are MY FAVE but not on my current set of pans.
I wish I could say I would make some amazing gourmet meal, but the reality is I’d probably make grilled cheese sandwiches for my boys. 😉
What perfect timing, because yes, I HAVE looked at our pots & pans lately and we are in DESPERATE need for a new set. And one that’s dishwasher safe?!?! Yes, please! We’re BIG fans of cooking homemade meals in our house, so I’m pretty confident that dinner any night of the week will be the first of many meals cooked in this awesome cookware!
We really need new cookware- thanks for the chance to win! I think I’d whip up some Jambalaya in the stockpot!

Eggs!
Decisions, decisions! Eggs are the most frequently cooked dish, so that’s my pick.

I would use the large pot for beef stew and the skillet for breakfast sausage, eggs and pancakes.
