This is my Cuisinart Food Processor. I purchased it last year from a JC Penney on sale. I pulled it from the box and used it that day. It worked fine, so about a week later I trashed the box and receipt. Then it broke. The bowl cracked across the bottom. I looked into what to do and the replacement bowl was a few dollars less than I paid for the entire thing. So, now I just chop dry things until I can decide to upgrade to the Kitchenaid that I've got my eye on.
This thing was used to make chicken taquitos, tahini, hummus, falafel, and crushed walnuts that I dipped some cream cheese filled, chocolate topped strawberries in.
I love having a food processor. The first thing my mother bought me when I got an apartment of my own was a mini-processor. Many deviled eggs were made using that thing. Chris dropped it and it broke about a week after the Cuisinart broke. That is my luck and the reason I'm resisting on purchasing a larger, more expensive model. Until then, I make due with this thing.
The strawberries recipe is very simple and I made it up:
Strawberries gutted using a tomato corer
Philadelphia Cream Cheese at room temperature for easy handling
Endangered Species brand Dark Chocolate
Crushed walnuts
I melted the chocolate in a double boiler, stuffed the strawberries with the cream cheese, dipped the tops of the strawberries in the melted chocolate and then immediately into the crushed walnuts, let them cool to a solid chocolate top. Yum.
