Since purchasing my Cuisinart Food Processor, I've been able to add some flair and healthy cooking ideas to my dishes. Those leftover vegetables are now part of my turkey meatloaf - adding flavor and freshness. The arthritis in my thumbs made holding a hand mixer next to impossible - now mashed potatoes and chocolate chip cookies are back on the menu. And I just made Pesto! This appliance is easy to use and easy to clean.
