I Thought I Knew Love…

…until I met my new Cuisinart food processor/ blender combo. I have never owned a food processor, unless you count the little mini-processor that I use to make sauces and hummus. It’s nothing like my new beauty, which can chop, slice, and blend. Heart! Heart! Heart! Just look at it! It seems to glow from within!
The first time I used it to slice some yellow squash everything was so loud and happened so quickly I jumped back and slapped the off button. I think I was panting. I turned it back on and fed another chunk of squash into the tube, giggling with glee over how easily it slices. The recipe I was prepping called for chopped red peppers, so what the heck? I threw those in there, too. That’s when I learned you can over process food. Note to self: use the pulse button when chopping. Whatevs, minced red pepper still tastes like red pepper.
It’s like a whole new world of food prep possibilities has been laid before me. I’m envisioning raw food “cakes”, homemade nut milks and lightning-fast stir fry’s. I haven’t been this happy about a house gadget since I bought my electric sweeper, which changed my life. No exaggeration. I have hardwoods.
