Pasta is good for us. It"s cholesterol-free and virtually fat and sodium free; but sometimes we"re inclined to eat larger portions than we should. O Magazine and Food Network Magazine have already sung the praises of Jokari"s Healthy Steps Portion Control Pasta Basket because it"s the ideal way to measure, cook and strain a correctly-sized single serving of your favorite pasta. The collapsible silicone basket not only accommodates pots of varying depths, it also provides a contained cooking space to ensure that you won"t cook more pasta than you need (and then be tempted to eat "just a little bit more!") But it"s not just for pasta, because it also easily steams vegetables or seafood and, because up to four baskets fit into one pot, it"s perfect for preparing an entire meal knowing that everything is properly measured without the fuss of weighing or counting calories. Wow, now you can actually eat everything on your plate and still feel good about it!
