It seems that on daily basis I use onions and garlic for a lot of things. Oh yes, would love to have cheese shredded or chopped up fine too in something that won’t take long to clean up.
The list is just too long to state but homemade salsa is something we love and it seems to take a bit too long to chop things for it when we are always in a hurry for a quick meal.

I regularly make homemade soups that need lots of shopping! My hubby loves scalloped potatoes, but I balk at the amount of hand slicing that takes so he doesn’t get it often … he’d love this addition to my kitchen! 😀
I have a very picky 5 year old, so I’ve become quite the magician when it comes to hiding veggies in her food! It’s alot of work chopping up all the veggies to make the purees and then add them wherever I can. She loves my mac’n’cheese – which is mostly butternut squash and a tiny bit of cheese but she wouldn’t have it any other way – as long as it’s hidden!
For me it would be mostly onions (as that is always dreaded in my house!) And also nuts for my baking.

I would LOVE such a Cuisinart!! Our first was a hand-me-down also… then before our first child was born, we got a brand new version as a gift (to help making baby food and stuff) but it is a huge, heavy machine with all the discs and blades as you mentioned… I don’t lug it out very often. I’d use it for just about everything, I reckon!
Sucks that the contest isn’t open to Quebec-residents. Poo.
I would love help chopping onions.
I like chunky vegetable soups, but my kids seem to prefer them pureed. This contraption would do the trick. Seems to have fewer parts to wash — the amount of cleanup involved with our current older model Cuisinart disincents us from using it regularly.
I need help chopping up my carrots,celery and onions for my home made hamburger soup.
I want to male gavs pizza dough with it. Yum.

As a mom to three very athletic boys two of them just hitting puberty its more and more important for me to feed them home cooked well rounded meals and that in my house means disguising vegetables as best as I can. I would use the Quisinart Elite Food Processor to help chop all of those vegetables nice and small to mask them in the homemade sauce or chicken pot pies that I have been making more of, hoping to keep their hunger at bay for more than an hour. Help a gal out 😀
I would like to help you chop up the cheese. Cheese is my least favorite thing to chop – I think it might be more fun to share the activity than do it alone.
