After making blueberry jam a few weeks ago, I’ve been wanting a food processor since it would have been so much easier to prepare the blueberries with one. Much to my surprise, the food processors were cheaper than I thought, so I was able to get one for $29. Last weekend I tested it out by slicing up some vegetables for my husband’s lunch. It took longer to clean the food processor than it did to slice all the vegetables. I decided to try some new potatoes that I had bought since I love thinly sliced potatoes.

I can’t believe I haven’t bought a food processor before now. I guess I just had in my mind that I wouldn’t have any use for a food processor. I will be using it again this weekend to make blueberry butter and slicing up some vegetables for a salad. It does help to cut down prep time for meals. Since it makes food prep a breeze, I may even cook more. I’ve never been much of a cook but lately I’ve really had the desire to cook, so I’m glad that I have discovered a useful kitchen appliance.
