Keeping a clean kitchen can appear to be impossible, but don’t feel intimidated- there are simple, cheap, and fast ways to keep your kitchen clean.

Here is a complete list of the chores necessary to keep your kitchen looking perfect, accompanied by the time it takes to do them, any supplies you will need, how hard they are, and whether or not you could trust your kid to do them right so that you don’t have to.
