Good Food

Spring is an exciting time for food and tradition and a great opportunity to make new, delicious and easy recipes for your family. It's a perfect chance to start incorporating all the seasonal fresh produce coming into supermarkets and farmer's markets in the warmer months ahead.

  • Canola Oil
  • 1/4 cup Gorgonzola Cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup Blueberries

Major Appliance Kitchen Remodeling Trends & Where to Find the Best Deals


Kitchen


 The reviewer has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free

 This spring, sleek and modern stainless steel finishes in major appliances for kitchens continue to be popular among those working on remodeling projects. At the same time, consumer preferences for alternative natural colors and finishes -- such as black, white, and gray for ovens, refrigerators and dishwashers -- are growing as more homeowners gravitate toward the not-so-modern farmhouse and classic black and white looks.

With kitchen design trends moving in all different directions right now, it's a good thing there are stores like Best Buy offering a wide selection of major appliance finish options at affordable prices. In fact, this season they're making it especially easy to maximize your remodeling dollars by offering significant savings on the latest GE Appliances.
