Between the demands of our careers, our personal relationships, and our side projects (and our side project’s side projects), it’s no surprise that most of us are feeling pressed for time. The first casualty of our modern, hectic life is dinner; we start off with great intentions, but inevitably end up ordering in or going out more often than we’d care to admit.
Frustrated with this pattern of working late and eating out, I’ve started to devote my Sunday nights to big-batch cooking. Every Sunday night, I cook big pots of grains for the week, roast sheet trays full of veggies, and slice up everything in my crisper drawer. With everything cooked and prepped beforehand, throwing together a healthy and nourishing grain bowl for lunch or dinner during the week is a cinch: just combine a big scoop of grains with veggies, a protein, and an interesting sauce to tie it together and you’re done.
Tofu Poke Bowl With Sesame Glazed Carrots
Recently, these tofu poke bowls have been in heavy rotation at our house. I love how fresh and bright the flavors are, but it’s truly the sesame glazed carrots that really push it over the top. While the combination of brown sugar and toasted sesame make for an addictive salty-sweet profile, the coagulated syrup stuck to my embarrassingly old sheet pan takes forever to scrape off. And, since saving time is the goal…all of this cleaning seems to defeat the purpose.
Recently, however, I tried the recipe using Circulon®’s Nonstick Cookie Pan, and all I can say is game changer. Thanks to the unique raised circle design of the pan, its surface is exceptionally resistant to sticking – my clean up took under 30 seconds with a little warm water and soap! No scrubbing = more time, something we can all use!

I have never had a poke bowl but it looks delicious. I would love this because my precious Nana passed away May 2nd and I am left in her home all by myself. She was my life and loved to cook so I am trying to embrace that.. just not as good of a cook as she was by no means. Lol :)
I need a cookware makeover so badly! The pans we have are the ones we received when we got married, almost 7 years ago. They are in sad shape.
I really need a cookware + bakeware makeover because all of my cook & bakeware is about 28 years old & it was cheaply made to begin with. I could really use a makeover to get nice quality-made bake & cookware that will last me my lifetime & still look great!

Thanks for the chance to win! I would love to upgrade all of my cookware. It would mean a lot to me, because then I could spend more quality time with my family and less soggy time with my dishes.
I need new cookware and bakeware because i’m still using the cheap set that I bought 13 yrs ago when I first moved out on my own. I bought a cheap set that is teflon. The teflon is has started to flake and therefor i’ve had to throw most of it out. I’m down to just a few pieces that are still in useable shape. I believe it’s time for a real set of cookware!!!
Wow, what an amazing giveaway! I could use a cookware and bake-ware makeover because I have numerous pots and pans that have rust spots. It’s time for an update, for the health of my family.
I would love to win some replacement cook and barware. I still have and use all of the kitchenware that my great-grandparents had when I was a baby! I’m 43 now. Good luck everyone!
Oops, bakeware, not barware. I was drooling on the keyboard, after reading that yummy recipe, and my fingers slipped!
This is awesome!! I love the recipe idea, I never would have thought of this!
I need to replace a lot of our cookware and do not have hardly any bakeware!

What great recipes – the sesame glazed carrots sounds amazing. I’m working hard to help our family eat healthier, and that involves more cooking at home. The Circulon cookware would make that task much easier. Thanks for the opportunity!
I just moved and would love for home to feel a little more like home!
I need a cookware and bakeware makeover because I do not own any cookware or bakeware.
We moved within the past year & I’ve been using a cheap set I found at Kmart on Black Friday. (btw, they’re TERRIBLE!) I’ve not even had them an entire year & the bottoms have already 80% scaled off :(
My bf is in the process of redoing a lot of things around our house & I don’t have the heart to currently ask him for new pots/pans. (trying to hold off until around Black Friday/Christmas LOL)
Thank you!!
Many of my cookware and bakeware pans are at least 5 years old if not older. I would love to retire them.

thanks!
(but I do miss pb&j sandwiches!!!)
My daughter just graduated from University of Texas (Yay! Brag!) and will be moving into a “real” apartment. As usual, I will be handing down some of my things and replace them with new (I’m the mom!) I would love to have some pieces of Circulon!
I need a cookware makeover so bad..=(
Our pans have no more non stick on them so when we cook everything sticks..
I would love to cook only with natural non teflon products.
We got most of our cookware when we got married 20 years ago! It’s definitely showing its age, and new cookware/bakeware would definitely lift my spirits & probably get me motivated to cook more again!
I desperately need a cookware & bakeware makeover, since I just moved and had to leave most of my things behind! This would be a great set to have to bake with my daughters over their summer break.
I haven’t replaced my cookware or cookie sheets (except for a saute pan every few years) since I got married 26 years ago…. sad since I even replaced the husband after 11 years. ;)
Most of my cookware is 20+ years old! It would inspire me to be more creative if I had something new to work with! Thank you for the chance!

As a caretaker for a very sick relative, I could really use some new pots, pans and/or bakeware. Everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING in their kitchen is beaten up, teflon is peeling, and not one pan sits flat on the stove. I am trying to cook healthy, nutritious meals to help restore their health, but given the cookware I have to use, it’s both frustrating and challenging. Thank you for the fabulous giveaway opportunity and recipes, too!! Best of luck to everyone!!!
I need new pans because mine are at least 10 years old.
I need some new cookware because when I went through a divorce, he threw all of my stuff away so we have just been using some left over pans my family had.
As I’m writing this a line from the movie ‘What about Bob’ (my favorite all time movie) keeps echoing in my head the one where Bob played by Bill Murray says repeatedly I need, I need, I need. :) That’s how I feel about the Circulon Starter Pack, I need, I need, I need. While raising my three children and sometimes half the neighborhood :) I bought only thrift store & garage sale pots & pans because I knew the kids would be dragging them out of the cupboard to make beautiful music or sneak them outside to create those wonderful looking mud pies. :) With my children grown now the used pots & pans that did the job for two decades are ready to be retired so I’m in great need of replacing them. It would be such a delight to own such a wonderful set of pots & pans. Thank you
My bakeware is so old I need a new set!
I haven’t got any new pots or baking pans in over a decade. I desperately need some ? Thank you
When my husband and I moved in together we both had an odd mix off non matching hand me downs. We need some adult pans!
Honestly, my daughter came home from college and when she returned to school ALL MY BAKEWARE was gone! I was left with the few rusty cookie sheets that appear to have been used as oil pans in the garage at some point.
Signed;
Desperate
(You should see the pan I attempted to use last night. It was so warped the pan is actually “twisted” so chicken juice runs to the bottom left corner. What a mess) Oh but daughter has a straight A average finishing her junior year so it’s not all bad. Sacrifices are made! :-)
We are remodeling our kitchen and it would be nice to have some new cookware and bakeware! My email is traciemichelle0515@gmail.com
We need a Cookware & Bakeware Makeover because our cookware (and bakewear) look like remnants of a Army Regiment War Zone.
I need a makeover because all of my pots and pans are hand me downs or from family dollar. I get so frustrated with my food burning easily or having to replace things often because of the quality. Thank you for this great giveaway.
We have a lot of pots & pans, but none match & most are definitely scratched up…so forget any of them being non-stick, lol. We definitely need a cookware/bakeware makeover!

Oh I would love a makeover! We have a homeless young man staying with us the past month and a half, and he moves into his own place now tomorrow! I packed up some of mine to give him so he has stuff to cook with, so I do not have much left for us. This is perfect timing! I would love a makeover!!!
I need a makeover, because I’m still using my mom’s hand-me-downs from the 80s/90s! She gave them to me when I left for college and 6 years later, I’m still using them (for frugality’s sake). I would love a makeover!
I need this set because mine are cheap and old. This set would make me want to cook at home instead of feeding my family take out so often.
I love Circulon and have one piece of their cookware (it’s the best!). I’d welcome the idea of donating my older pieces if I could receive some new Circulon pieces to add to my kitchen. As far as bakeware – my current stuff is awful (rusty, scratched non stick surface, warped). I don’t bake as often as I’d like, because the pans produce less-than-desirable results, plus I have to soak for awhile to get them clean. It would be so exciting to have new bakeware pieces that not only look nice, but perform better.
Oh my goodness, I would love to have a nice new set of Circulon cookware. All I have now are surviving pieces of various sets that I have had over the years.
I need a cookware + bakeware makeover because my cooking pans are old and I would love to cook with a brand new set.
I need a cookware makeover because I’m a grad student teaching myself how to cook for the first time and I’m sick of recipes failing because I’m using a collection of rejected kitchen wares from various relatives. I need some reliable, quality kitchen tools.
My mom recently moved to America from Italy to be closer to me, and after a few years of severe culture shock she’s finally starting to get back on her feet, started a great new job and will soon be moving to her own place. That means she’ll need everything that makes a home “a home”, all the little (and big) things that we usually accumulate throughout life and that she had to leave behind when she moved here. A new set of pans will be a small addition to all the things she will need, but it’s a start. So I’d love to get the Circulon set for her. Thank so much for the opportunity :)
I’m excited about this contest because I. Love to cook. And I’m trying to make changes in my life and eat healthier. I would love to win this contest because everyone knows you need to have the right tools for the best job performance. This cookware set would be everything I would need to make the best home cooked meals for my family.
I would love to win this for my sister who is going through a divorce and starting over. My email is traciemichelle0515@gmail.com

I need new cookware because I have odds and ends for cookware.
I was always a pretty terrible cook until about two years ago when we found out my husband and then 5 year old daughter have a thyroid disorder along with gluten allergies. We completely changed the way we eat and are now gluten free & vegan. I have found a huge love of cooking and coming up with new recipes, but my cookware hasn’t caught up. My collection is still caught in the days of when I would rather eat out than eat in:)
This looks delicious!!! Definitely gonna have to try it. My family doesn’t eat meat so this is right up our alley LOL Would absolutely love to win new cookware!! Thanks for the chance and this recipe!!!!! ?

I need a new set of cookware + bakeware as I cook using a hodgepodge of pots and pans and bakeware that I’ve accumulated from family, friends, thrift stores, etc. I would also love to have pots and pans that are truly new – not just new to me, lol.
First, those carrots look delicious. We need a new bakerware and cookware set bc we haven’t been able to budget for one since we first moved in together almost 7 years ago. Needless to say, first year of marriage cooking experiments have left us with very few surviving pans.
I am wanting a cookware and bakeware makeover, to get away from the southern fried cooking I grew up with, and more into cooking healthier foods. I’ve been learning new recipes (and I love the ones in this article), but I need the right cookware to do more. Those old iron skillets are just too heavy to lift and manage too.

Mine are getting old and should be replaced.
Been replacing my worn out cookware with Circulon and this package helps.
I am a stay at home dad so I do the majority of the cooking & baking at our house. I’m the one that hears (right at bedtime, mind you) hey dad, It’s my turn to bring snack for the entire class tomorrow! :) Having a family with three children means my pots, pans & bakeware are showing signs of the tons of use they’ve been through. The Circulon starter pack cookware + bakeware makeover would be a dream come true for this busy family! P.S. The tofu poke bowls recipe sounds delicious I’m going to try it. Thank you.
Thank you it looks wonderful!
I really need all this stuff again when I lost my husband I lost everything so now I am starting over fresh thank you for the chance
its mine dream to have a great set to cook and bake with instead of cheap stuff that I can afford
Those carrots look yummy. I once tried to recreate a carrot dish I had a WDW and came close, but not quite. Have to try this recipe. Without giving away my age I’ll tell you I have been cooking and baking for around 60 years. Not all of my cookware is that old but I really do need an update in the “pots & pans” department.
Well, my bigger skillet has a cracked handle, my cookie sheets are discolored no matter how much I scrub, and I have never owned a straining saucepan and really want one!
I have one Circulon pan (14″ wok) that I love and would like to replace my older pots/pans/cookie sheets with new Circulon cookware & bakeware. Nothing better than new pots and pans!
wow I sure could use this thank you for the chance I am using old ones my mom gave me
I need a new cookware set so bad. Our set is so worn out and I honestly just don’t have the money to replace it. I would love to win! :)

I need a cookware makeover because most of my stuff is about 10 years old. After years of living in rentals, I finally have my own home and I want good quality cookware in my new kitchen.
I need a cookware makeover because I have been teaching my husband to cook and when I am not looking he uses metal utensils and puts everything in the dishwasher.

#LoveCirculon I would have never thought of that! Thanks for posting!
Awesome recipe, I love tofu!! I need a new cookware/bakeware makeover because all my stuff is old from my family. I’d love to have my own new pots & pans!

Looks like a tasty and very healthy dish. something I need to try.
Circulon has the best cookware/bakeware out there. Im thankful they can deliver such a great product. The dish prepared looks wonderful and I bet it tastes even better. #Funcooking #circulon
Through four moves across the country, and at least one or two more pending, our collection is getting a bit tattered. I think retirement is in order for many…
I am finally getting my own place, and I need all the furniture I can get; especially items that will help me cook my favorite recipes, as nourishment is the most important thing! Thanks for the chance to win! :)
Our panbs are pretty scratched up. Someone in our home has a habit of using metal utensils on the black non-stick surface of our pans. Everything has scratches in it, with two of the pans being so bad we can’t use them.
I need a cookware + bakeware makeover because I have been using the same things since forever, at least 2 decades. I’d love some new items to make some fabulous things in!
all of our sheets and pans need replaced for sure
i have had the same pots and pans for over 10 years and we just haven’t been able to afford to upgrade to better quality pots and pans. May 27th is our 10 year wedding anniversary so I would love to win or buy some for our home.
Our apartment came with baking pans, but we could use some of our own that will be long lasting!!
I definitely need a makeover – my kitchenware is mostly stuff I stole from my mom when I was in college in the 80s, meaning things she purchased in the 60s
My bakeware, especially, is ancient. They’re only good if lined with foil. New ones would be fantastic! My cookware collection could use a boost too!
I’ve had the same bakeware since college…rust spots and all!
I need a cookware and bakeware makeover because I’ve been slowly amassing different items since moving into my own apartment, but I could definitely use a set like this!
Most of my cookware is old! Wedding presents from 1989. It’s past time for an upgrade.
WE have an older set of cookware that has the black non-stick coating on the inside. All of the pans have scratches in the black, but a few are so bad that we had to stop using them because they left black chunks in the food.
I need new cookware/bakeware because what I currently own is a mix of hand me downs from my parents and cheap stuff bought at discount stores.
Oh man, my cookware is a terrible mish-mash, other than my trusty cast iron.
My cookware takes a beating feeding five kids, most of it is handmedowns! What a treat this would be!
I WOULD BE SO THANKFUL!!
I have a SET OF Revere ware that was a gift from my grandparents many years ago! Probably at least 50 years . It is just now deteriorating and burning right through the copper bottom!!!
I am going on 83 years of age but in spite of a few surgeries and a cancer which took one breast…I still love to cook and my current “family” which consists of a fifty three pound three year old Goldendoodle…three Maine Coon male cats , a koi pond with 65 stunning koi, ( don’t have to cook for them , just feed them daily.)They do love to eat! Newest additions are three adorable 10 day old baby chicks, still living in my living room for a while longer. THE GIRLS ARE ”CREAM PUFF”” , “”MIA” AND ”MIDNIGHT”!!
THESE”ROOM MATES” KEEP ME BUSY..BUT SHOPPING AND COOKING ARE MY FAVORITE ”HOBBIES”
Today I am fixing a pasta with red and yellow sweet peppers, shallots, purple onions,garlic, Italian sausage and lots of herbs…
I will be wishing for some bright shiney cookware. `I WILL BE HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY!!!!!
BEVERLY
Oh goodness I definitely a cookware makeover!! As a girl on a budget, all of my cookware is unfortunately not the highest quality. I could go for some new, non-stick pans for sure!! ;)
My sister is moving from the UK to TX and she can’t move all her kitchen stuff, so she needs to start over!
I’m in college and love to cook but can’t afford anything nice :-(
I need new cookware because my cookware is more than 10 years old
Looks so tasty! Do you marinate or anything else with the tofu?
I would love to win this, because my cookie sheets look like a nuclear bomb hit them and I lost my sauce pan to my cousin’s “cooking”. I would love one that strains too! Thanks for the chance!
That bowl looks amazing! I need a cookware/bakeware makeover because I’m using my Mother’s hand-me-downs and they’re really shabby! HA :)

I am in desperate need of new cookware. The nonstick coating is peeling off where my daughter scratched all my pots and pans. It’s terrible! I just can’t afford to buy new ones.
This recipe sounds delicious! I’m looking forward to trying it once I get back from vacation. And as to why I need some new cookware? One word: college. I’m still using pans and baking sheets from my college days. I’m 30. Shameful.
I am still using my Grandma’s old cookware from the 60s (brown paisley patterned, at that!), so I could use an update!
I would absolutely LOVE this! I have never had a “set” before!! I still use the hand-me-down pieces that my mom gave me when I moved out… 12 years ago!!
My boyfriend and I are moving into our first home together and we would LOVE a brand new set of cookware/bakeware! We cook every single night together and our current pots/pans/dishes are wearing out quickly. I would love to win this! Thank you for the chance :)
I need this as a gift for a friend who just moved into a new place….and all her stuff is really old and practically unusable.
Oh man I need these haha. I have two pans from good will right now, and some new ones would be greatly appreciated.
I need a cookware + bakeware makeover, we just relocate and don’t bring much with us to the new location.
What a great giveaway, thank you! What little cookware I have is all scratched up and I can only imagine how many little bits and flecks of the pan are going into my food – eek!
I need a need a cookware makeover because I would like some new pieces to work with. A lot of our cookware is 10+ years old.
I have random cookware and when I want to make something new and don’t have the right equipment I don’t make it.
I am definitely in need of new bakeware and cookware! What I do have of a set that I purchased is older than my teenager ?
Thank you for the great recipes, advice, and this giveaway!
I need a cookware/bakewear makeover because my pans and baking pans and sheet are so old and they look horrible. I cook several times a day for my family, so I could really use some new ones. Thank you for the wonderful giveaway.

When we got married 12 years ago, we splurged on beautiful non-stick Calphalon pans. Despite being super careful with them, they are peeling and scratched. I’ve slowly gotten rid of them and I need new pans!
I moved across the country to Chicago and had to sell everything, so my kitchen’s really bare although I’m cooking more than I ever have in my life! I’d love to win! Thank you for your awesome posts and the great giveaway.
I need this cookware makeover! When my husband and I got married 10 years ago, we purchased 3 pans. Our family has grown by 3 boys, and we’re still using the same 3 pans. These would compliment what we have, and make cooking on our new gas cooktop so nice! Thanks for the opportunity to win :)
I’m about to head off to college so I’m starting all over with everything! Can’t rely on my family’s cookware anymore :)
