Right now we have a couple of calphalon non stick skillets and 2 saucepans and a pasta pot in the rv. We also travel with various sizes of disposable tinfoil baking pans, a 1 inch deep sheet pan that fits in the oven and a muffin pan.

When we go full time I intend to take my all-clad stainless pots and pans. Yep, they're heavy, but I love to cook and now that I finally have a good set of cookware there's no way I'm giving it up. I think we'll eventually get some of the silicon bakeware. I use the silicone cookie sheet liners now. They're GREAT! Just remember that the silicone bakeware will flex so you still need something to hold it stable when getting it in and out of the oven.

I'll probably stick mostly to the disposable tinfoil things for baking and roasting since I do less of that and sometimes cleaning up after the roast is just too messy! I'd rather spend a $1 and toss it than try to scrub sometimes!

I also grill out 75% of the time.  That's whether we're at the house or in the RV. 

And one appliance that I really love is  a Cuisinart Panini Press/Griller.  It has flat plates that you can make pancakes/french toast on and you can grill inside with it either open or closed.  It's GREAT and well worth the space it takes up for us!

Three Alclad pots and three cast iron fry pans pretty much cover the cooking front.

Perhaps I'm one of the few who did not get specialized items when it comes to cookware.  I use the same items I used in a S&B, albeit a lot less in number!  I just went through my cookware and dishes and really pared down to the necessary bare bones and that's what we have in the rig.

We use paper plates, yes, but I brought along my nice ceramic dishes just because we like them.  They were our "nice" ones before and we figured why shouldn't we use them for everyday?  We have a drawer under the oven which is a perfect fit for the entire set, no shifting about, etc.

Guess it just depends on your needs, wants and cooking/dining habits.  It is your home, so do whatever feels right and works for your particular rig!

Cheers!

When it comes to KT's (kitchen tools), everyone has their favorites.  Having been a sailboater for years before putting wheels under the travelling home, I have been accustomed to preparing good meals in small galleys.

Especially for the summer months, we use our induction burner everyday.  It does a wonderful job without heating up the coach.  It is fast, clean and simply sits on the counter in one square foot. 

I use a magnet money clip to carry bills in my pocket.  The money clip also comes in handy in stores to check out new cookware for a ferrous base. 

Love that induction cooking!
