Ninja At Work … Letting Me Know When My Meal Will Be Done

My friend Stephanie O’Dea talked about her love of the Ninja 3-in-1 Cooking System in a presentation at the International Food Bloggers Conference last year and word spread quickly about this wonderful new piece of kitchen equipment. I was fortunate to have Ninja give me my very own system to try out!

If you don’t already know Stephanie, you should! She’s one of my very favorite bloggers and a dear friend. She blogs at stephanieodea.com where you will find her blogs, A Year of Slow Cooking and Totally Together Journal. You’ll also find her giveaway page on her site, run by her skilled “giveaway wrangler” Lisa Irvine. (You’ll definitely want to follow that page!)

Stephanie is also the author of the bestselling cookbook Make It Fast, Cook It Slow; as well as More Make It Fast, Cook It Slow, Plus, Stephanie has a new cookbook, 365 Slow Cooker Suppers. Stephanie’s recipes are terrific for everyone because they work for those who are gluten free as she notes the gluten-free accommodations she makes for her gluten-free family (e.g., “I used Pamela’s Baking Mix.”), but others can use her recipes without following such special guidance.

I have always trusted Stephanie’s opinion on just about everything! But to be honest, my Ninja 3-in-1 Cooking System stayed in the box for a good while. I finally pulled it out at Thanksgiving last year to make Stephanie’s Slow-Cooked Maple Ham (a crowd pleaser for sure and so easy to make!) and then my Special Zesty Turkey Breast (you’ll never go back to regular turkey breast) the next day.  I simply used the slow cooker feature—which is only one of the things that Ninja 3-in-1 Cooking System can do. I was impressed and pleased with the results. I love the fact that the cooking time remaining is shown on the digital display. I love the metal pot with the non-stick surface for easy clean-up, and you can’t break it! And you know the old adage about black making everything look smaller. Well, it’s even true with slow cookers! I was skeptical that a “monster” ham would fit in the Ninja, but it did with no problem. Similarly, a large turkey breast fits with ease.

The Ninja 3-in-1 Cooking System can do so much more though! Per the folks at Ninja, “Ninja 3-in-1 Cooking System with Triple Fusion Heat surrounds the meal to cook faster, and juicier for more flavorful results. Three convenient cooking functions bring one pot multi-cooking to a whole new level for endless meal creations that take only minutes to prepare. Steam, Roast & Bake; perform Stovetop Cooking, and Searious® Slow Cook complete family rewarding meals in the large 6-Qt non-stick cooking pot that can accommodate up to a 6-lb chicken or even a 4-lb roast.”

      I Love GFE I work with a lot of people who cannot have gluten and we do a lot of potluck get to gathers and we always make our menus GF and we are loving it, plus on top of everything my Crockpot quick working and I really need not want a new one. Thank you Shirley loving this contest so much and thanks for the awesome recipes too.

    This is an epic giveaway Shirley. I’ve read what Stephanie has written about this cooker and it sounds amazing.

    Why do I love GFE? Let me count the ways! I love that you truly make gluten free living easier. You have a wonderful site that is full of options for every type of diet from full on substitution of gf products to paleo. You support other bloggers by posting recipes each day. That helps people like me to find new sites…but I always return to GFE. =D

    We love the recipes we find on your site! Four of my grandkids and I are Celiacs. I do all the GF cooking for us – there are 7 gluten eaters in my daughters family (in addition to the 4 GF kids) and this would be wonderful to help to keep the GF foods safe from contamination.

    I would adore this set as it would make mealtimes so much simpler for us since we both work. It would also be a wonderful birthday gift (today!)

    Thank you so much for offering this prize, I adore your recipes and tips!

    This is just a great appliance and sort of seems like the cream of the crop of slow cookers.

    I am going back to work soon and dh is gone all day, so this would be great to have to cook meals and have them ready for the family by the time I get back from work.

    Our 4 kids could also learn to get food ready in the a.m. and that would be even better!

  17. Heather Mann says

    We would definitely love to have the ninja system because my daughters have been diagnosed in 2011 with celiac disease and since I work 2 hours away from home I love getting dinner ready for them before I leave so they would be set for dinner on the evening. I love your recipes too!

    I’m new to the gluten free lifestyle. I’ve concluded that gluten leads to my migraines and bloating. GFE has so many great recipes and tips!

    I “like” GFE page and just “liked” ninja kitchens.

  22. Donna Davis says

    Going gluten free was a major (and necessary) change for me. The only way that I was able to handle the challenge was by sticking to just a few dinners. My family got pretty tired of eating the same few things over and over again. I am thankful for your site and the diversity of things I can make successfully with the menus and tips I find here. Thank you for making gluten free easier.

    I am new to gfe but i can see that you will become a top ‘go to’ site for GF recipes. I’m already planning to try the pie crust recipe you posted a couple of days ago. I have real trouble making pie crusts that will work for small tarts and being able to just push one into place might be the answer. Bring on the mincemeat tarts 🙂

    The Ninja belongs in my kitchen because I’m single and it’s a perfect size cooker for me so as not to waste energy in an oven built for families! I am gluten free and stay as close to wheat free as possible. It’s made a big difference in my health. I get gfe on FB. I’ve forwarded my gfe to friends.

    I’m 4months in to a GF, DF diet due to my newborn having an intolerance. Before my youngest was born, I consistently dined out and fast food was easy. That lifestyle quickly came to a hault and I researched TONS of websites, cookbooks, FB fan pages and with that said, gfe is on the top of my list as a go to for easy, delicious recipes! Thank you for your contribution to the GF world 🙂

    I would love to have a ninja 3 in 1 cooking system in my kitchen! With living in an aparment, space can be limited… Having appliances that can perform multiple tasks is a must. This has been on my wishlist for months now. I love that it not only slow cooks but also roasts AND can be used as a stovetop… Gluten free easily is one of my main go-to resources for gluten free living! I already like both your page amd ninja’s page on facebook. I am sharing giveaway via facebook.

Thank you for the opportunity to win this. I would love this 3-n-1 because I have a family of 6 to feed. I am the only “cook” lol. I LOVE my crockpot and well, it is cracked now due to the oldest dropping it after washing it. I still use it as I can’t afford another one big enough to feed us. I just line it with Foil. My husband is diabetic(type 1) and he is on so many different medications for his stints in his heart, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, the medications give him ibs, so the gfe page gives me some great recipes that i can use to help ease his pain.

    A few years ago I stumbled upon Stephanie O’Dea …now I consider her a life saver! I have a 9yr old, I work full time in a busy doctors office and my husband works 2nd shift. Thanks to Ms. O’Dea’s inspiring books I use my crock pot 3-5 Times a week to prepare meals so that my entire family can enjoy a home cooked meal even though we do see dad all week. I cook overnight so that I don’t leave my appliance running while we’re not around. I think the Ninja system would make my somewhat efficient cooking even more so!

    Being gluten intolerant has meant learning to do things differently. But also working a new job that has long hours (10 hour days), slow cooking is exactly what I’m looking for. To me, that’s my future and would allow me to make not just dinner, but it’d give me leftovers for the next day’s lunch! What a great idea and one I’d use all the time. Thanks for doing this, it’s fantastic.

    I follow you on FB and by email. So I keep your recommendations handy when I need to replace kitchen items and for great recipes.

    I love your site. We do low carb, and my son can’t have any grains, even non-gluten ones. But I can substitute nut flours and sometimes make do with psyllium husks as a flour replacement. I’m fairly new to your site, but it inspires me, and I’ve found good ways to use substitutions as needed.

    The cooking system looks delightful. I’d love to win one! Thanks for the chance to do so!

    I think I’ve already liked gfe on facebook, but will go check that that is true.

    Already “LIKE” gfe on Facebook. While in line at walmart the other evening, I was able to share the site with the person in front of me (just one week out from being diagnosed with Celiac) and the person behind me who “tried it, and felt better but it was too hard”. Invited her to the site for the reasons that it is NOT hard……..

    This would be great in my kitchen, allowing me to make meals that my son (celiac) could take for lunch since the schools are not gluten friendly with their food service. 🙂

    I first became aware of the Ninja 3-in-1 Cooking System when I decided my slow cooker is too small. Obviously, the 3-in-1 would address the size issue, but it’d do so much more at the same time! As for gfe, I liked your Facebook page a few months ago when searching for gluten-free holiday recipes, & I’ve loved your posts ever since. I’ve been following the Ninja Kitchens Facebook page for months as well. I’ve shared the news about this giveaway on both my Facebook & Twitter pages.

    I LOVE GFE. it has been so helpful the past 2.5 years since I made the switch to GF. Recipes on your page, and the ones on Stephanie’s page were life savers for me when I first got started, and they are still among the handful of pages I go to first when looking for recipes. (Had found Stephanie’s page before going gf, so it was wonderful having a starter base of things I knew would be safe while I relearned everything.)
    Would love to have a Ninja system. Have been reading wonderful things about it, but haven’t been able to afford one thus far. Slow cookers, toaster ovens and an electric roaster pan were life savers for us a few years ago when our oven died suddenly and we spent most of a year saving up so we could get a really nice new one with a double oven. Still do a lot of holiday cookery with the roaster pan and slow cookers because we learned that year that it was so much easier

It would be such a blessing to my home as I am the only one who is gluten free and usually have to make two different meals or make something extremely simple for me. So if I could prep on sundays for meals through the week and just put them in the slow cooker, that would be great!

    I was just salivating over this at Costco last week! Not in the budget though. This is perfect for me because my landlord can’t understand that when the top element doesn’t “glow” food doesn’t brown on top. His response to my complaint is that all ovens here perform like that. So I haven’t been happy with how my food cooks. Very frustrating. A toaster oven isn’t big enough to cook a roast or a whole chicken. The elements are too close and the food burns. I’ve been tearing my hair out with this problem, but this would be the perfect solution! What a sweetheart you are to offer this to your readers. I never respond or comment online, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t fully appreciate all you’re doing to educate about and promote gf cooking. Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas!

    I love this giveaway! I live in a family of four in which two are physically handicapped. For the two that work and have to come home and care for the other two this would be great as we could put supper on in the morning before we leave for work and come home with supper ready to eat each day instead of eating so late each night. I would be used all the time and make our lives so much easier.

I prefer to use my crockpot but have read that the Ninja can do so much more than a normal crockpot! I would love to have the opportunity to use a Ninja 3, to see all the advantages of owning one.

    Reading your description of how you suffered, and were finally diagnosed, hit so close to home. Decades of suffering unnecessarily due to ignorance from the medical community.
    🙁 And I’m an RN! But I had to study and search for an answer myself. Praise God, I finally found it. I started a gf lifestyle in December of 2010. This Ninja system would be a huge blessing, as I’ve not yet been able to return to work. I do have the honor of making short term foreign mission trips. Of course there’s no monetary compensation for that. 🙂 But definite blessings many fold. It’s amazing to me that no matter what continent I’m on, I’m able to spot and diagnose dear people struggling with reactions to gluten, and sometimes get to teach them how to improve their lives. This has become a part of my ministry both here and abroad. Thank you for your help through this blog, which I just found today! You’re a huge blessing to many.

    Many years ago, I inherited my grandmothers “three story aluminum baking pan.” It was perfect for cooking whole meals especially yummy turkeys. I loved that she bought it using her precious egg money; but then I discovered the dangerous hazards of cooking with aluminum. Now her cooker sits high above my cupboards waiting for someone to ask about it and hear the egg story (how long it took to save egg money and how angry my grampa got when she spent it on a PAN!) I’ve really missed it! But now I look at your new “modern” ninga and can see that it will not only cook whole dinners but bake treats as well. PS I love the honesty of your blog. It encourages me to try and to “make do” with the mistakes! Thank you. I liked you on FB as well.
