    More than coffee

    I also enjoy other appliances, like the Hamilton Beach food processor. It was a gift. So after sitting on the shelf for a while, I decided to use it to make a salad. I shredded some carrots, sliced some tomatoes, peppers, lettuce. OMG was it good. I made a dressing, mayo and vinegar. It was awesome.


    I also used it to chop up some frozen meatballs to make empanadas. I microwaved them to get them soft then I put them in the processor along with some leftover vegetables. Afterwards put the mixture in the empanada with cheese on top, folded it, fried it. Everyone loved it. Maybe coffee beans are next.

    This is the processor. What would you use it for?
