How to Easily and Effectively Organize Your RV Kitchen

We love RV Camping and have for so many years, however, one of the main struggles we have had for all those years was storage and organization. We are always looking for ways to get rid of all the clutter, especially in our RV Kitchen and more importantly, RV Kitchen Cabinets, Drawers, Spice Rack, and the Pantry! We have tried MANY space-saving, collapsible, and expandable gadgets and hacks regarding cookware, bakeware, and overall RV kitchen essentials through the years, and we are going to share with you How to Easily and Effectively Organize Your RV Kitchen!

How to Organize Your RV Kitchen Cabinets and Pantry

Our most recent RV Camping trip proved to be frustrating to me in the kitchen area. It was such a mess. No organization at all inside the cabinets. The bread and buns were squashed beyond recognition. Every time we opened the cabinet above the sink to get a bowl, plate, or storage container, the storage container lids fell out on us and into the sink. I can’t be the only one who has issues with this, right?

 

 

I NEED organization!

 

So, I went to my favorite shopping spot, Amazon and began to search for the best organization products I could find for our RV. Here is what I found that works best to Organize Your RV Kitchen Cabinets and Pantry!

 

 

The Bread/Bun Situation

Squashed bread, hamburger, and hot dog buns are not fun. It’s very frustrating! Here is what I found to fix that problem!

 

The Bread Keeper

This is a 2 Pack Bread Keeper. First you simply put a loaf of bread (still in the plastic bag) into the container. Next, pull the plastic bag around the opening of the container. Finally, the bread keeper will dispense a slice of bread, one at a time, with a pull-down, pop-up motion. It keeps your bread fresher for longer too! Dishwasher safe and made in the USA.

 

 

The Bun Keeper

This Bun Keeper will hold Hamburger or Hot Dog Buns. Like The Bread Keeper, it keeps your Hamburger or Hot Dog Buns fresher for longer too! It is dishwasher safe too! Be sure to purchase 2 of these so you will have storage for hamburger AND hot dog buns!

 

 

The Plates and Bowls Situation

The next issue we had was the plates, bowls, and storage containers not being organized at all. The plastic storage container lids would fall out of the cabinet every time we opened it. Here is what I found to fix this problem!

 

 

Home-X 9” Salad/Dessert Plate Holder

The Salad/Dessert Plate Holder holds plates in an upright position saving us lots of space in our small, above the sink cabinet where we store our plates and bowls.

 

 

Home-X 11” Dinner Plate Holder

This 11″ Dinner Plate Holder also holds plates in an upright position. It makes it much easier to grab a plate without having to remove lots of salad plates and bowls stacked on top of them!

 

 

Tiered Bowl Rack Organizer

Technically, this Tiered Bowl Rack Organizer may be a drying rack for bowls, but it holds Corelle bowls perfectly so that’s what we will use it for! Another big space saver item!

 

 

Organize Your RV Kitchen Overall!

Organize Your RV Kitchen Food Storage Containers:

Food Storage Organizer No more storage container lids falling all over the place when we open the cabinet door! The Chef Buddy Swirl Around Food Storage Organizer is perfect for storing all those lids and containers! It allows easy to access all sizes because it swirls around.

 

 

Organize Your RV Kitchen Spices:

Organizing the Spices We had already purchased this Spice Rack to hang on the wall and it works perfectly! This wall mountable spice rack is a great way to keep your spices within reach while keeping them organized at the same time. You can hang them on your RV wall, inside a cabinet or pantry, or beside your stove-top like we have ours.

 

 

Organize Your RV Kitchen Coffee Pods:

Organizing the Coffee Pods We had also already purchased this Coffee Keepers Under the Cabinet K-Cup holder. It fits under a cabinet, with NO DRILLING REQUIRED! Thankfully it has held up for years. Also, it swings down for easy access to my coffee pods and swings upright to keep them out of the way. I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!

 

 

Organize Your RV Kitchen Countertop Space:

Countertop Space Organization Another of my favorite purchases from the past is this double pack of Handy Caddy Sliding Trays! We use one for the Keurig Machine and the other is used for the toaster. Slide them out when you want to use them and push them back when done to save space!

 

 

Organize Your RV Kitchen Utensils

Utensil Caddy

This super cute Utensil Caddy is not only very attractive to display but very handy to have! It has 7 different compartments to hold whatever you wish! Knives, forks, spoons, salt and pepper shakers, toothpicks, and sauces. There is also a special place designed just for napkins/paper plates and cups.

 

 

Kitchen Knife and Utensil Set with Rotating Stand

The 7-piece Kitchen Knife and Utensil Set has a very colorful appearance. It has a 360-degree rotating stand that makes it super easy to grab whatever you need! It only takes up 9″ space on your countertop!

 

 

Roll Up Sink Drying Rack with Removeable Utensil Holder

The Roll up sink drying rack works well for drying dishes, rinsed veggies, and fruits. Additionally, it can be used as a hot mat. It rolls up for easy storage and has a removeable utensil holder. It fits right over the sink for easy draining and drying.

 

 

Helpful Bonus! Organize Your RV Kitchen Pots, Pans, and Skillets!

Expandable Cookware Organizer for Kitchen Cabinet

Finally, the last issue we were having was organizing pots, pans, and skillets! There is only so much space in an RV Kitchen!! Because we chose an RV with a smaller kitchen so we can enjoy more space in the living area where we need it, having space for pots and pans in it is pretty much not happening! I was storing pots and pans in our living room for heaven’s sake!

 

 

Most of the Cookware Organization products we had purchased in the past were size specific and wouldn’t fit in our RV cabinets. Then we found the Expandable Pan Organizer for the kitchen! This organizer is ADJUSTABLE AND EXPANDABLE! The Expandable Cookware Organizer works great in your kitchen cabinets, drawers, or on the countertop. You can use it to store plates, pots, pans, skillets, lids, cookie sheets, cutting boards, and much more!
