Product-Review: Best $25 I have EVER spent..........in the kitchen
This by FAR has to be one of the best kitchen appliances that I own. Prior to this little bad boy I would chop everything by hand. I have a small kitchen so buying a huge food processor was just not going to happen, and I am so glad that I did not buy a great big one, now that I have my Ninja.
For example, it would take me hours to chop up the ingredients for my "Ass Kickin Salsa" (see Ass Kicking Salsa Recipe) because I would always make a huge batch, usually using about 8-12 large tomatoes, onions, jalepenos, etc. Now it literally takes me less than 20 minutes from start to finish to make my salsa (pico de gallo).
This processor is so small but super mighty and it fits just about anywhere. It is smaller than the coffee maker or toaster and it works like magic with the very sharp blades. It only comes in these 4 pieces, so the "easy breezy" clean up of just rinsing it under hot water or putting it in the dishwasher is a snap. I LOVE the fact that this did not com with a ton of attachments. I can have it out of the counter and set up ready to be used in less than a minute vs having to fiddle with a ton of components, same goes for the take apart and clean.
This processor only comes with one blade and that will be all you need. It is really sharp.You just cut whatever you want to chop from herbs, tomatoes, nuts, etc into pieces that fit in the cylinder and you only need to pulse a few times to get the food into tiny little chucks. For bigger chunks pulse only once or twice.
And the best part is..........? It only cost around $25! You can find one of these anywhere KMart, Target, WalMart or even online. They also have a bigger Ninja with extra components if you have the kitchen space
I would highly recommend one of these. And no, I am not getting paid any royalties for this review. I just like to share any items that will make you guys happier in the kitchen and in and out as fast as possible.

I also have a small kitchen, and I'm always looking for things I can use in that limited space. This looks like something I'd like to check out. Do you have any recommendations for a blender? That's something else I've been thinking about getting.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of cilantro too! I saw the recipes you posted and will definitely check them out.
MarkH the best kitchen blender is the Nutribullet. I have a traditional one and I have not used it since I bought the bullet. I grind coffee in it, make smoothies, drinks and everything a blender can do. Plus that also takes up little space. I will do a review on it if you like : )
ReplyDeleteYes that would be awesome if you did a review for it, thank you!
