What size cutting board do you feel is the best to have, when just having one.

1 1/2 feet x 2 feet.

I really can't do with just one. I use these. They are lightweight and stand upright nicely in an metal bapkin holder so I can just have them at my fingertips. They wash and dry very easily. Plus I have a couple of small ones for cutting lemons, limes, etc.

I do have several

12" x 9" is the smallest.

It's very handy, bamboo, I keep it on the counter between my stovetop & sink.

Although there are more in the cupboard, I tend to use & wash the same cutting mat over and over.

For me, the Goldilocks (just right) size is approximately 15" x 11&1/2" , flexible plastic cutting mat from either Dollar Tree or Wal-Mart.

Not so small that my sliced or diced veg get mixed together, or are rolling off the edge of the mat as I continue to cut.....Not so inconveniently big that I can't easily wash both sides in the sink very quickly.

Probably 40 years since I put raw meat on a cutting board. Just prep a lot of produce. For the occasional times I'm handling raw meat I'll use something I can throw away, like paper plates.

I have several sizes and use all of them.  Like a very small one for just cutting a lemon or tomato.  Have a medium  to large size to slice bread made in my breadmaker.

I have a very small one and a 12 x 15 I use quite a lot.  Both are dw safe.

I use acrylic..........14" x 17"...........I leave them out on the counter in every work space in my kitchen.     (They "save" the counters from ANY kind of damage.)

Thank you for replies and thoughts on this

Can't just use one. We have a large one with juice groove for carving larger cuts of meat.

We have smaller ones to use for other things. I also like the plastic ones that are bendable. It makes it easy to fold kind of in half to scoop food off in to pot.
