Our favorite mixing bowls are available
at Amazon.com.

We use these stacked melamine bowls in THE NIBBLE kitchen. Who cares that they have a spout: They add bright color to the table when filled with salad, pasta, soup, sides and especially, chips, popcorn and other snacks.

Stainless steel, glass and ceramic (pottery) mixing bowls also do handsome double duty at the table.

If you need to give a house gift to new homeowners, give them something they’ll really use. Consider a set of good-looking mixing bowls. Check out:
