Cuisinart Mini-Prep Plus 3-Cup Food Chopper, Brushed Chrome

I absolutely love this mini food processor. I have a large food processor, made by another manufacturer. It takes up a huge amount of space in a storage drawer I had specifically designed for larger food appliances. It is so heavy, I dread lifting it out of the drawer to put on the counter. (But I refuse to leave it on the counter all the time because it takes up too much surface area.) It is also difficult to clean. My new Mini-Prep Plus Processor is the exact opposite. It takes up very little space and is a real "work-horse". It has made food prep so quick and easy - I especially love how I have beautifully chopped onions and garlic in no time. This was a chore I used to dread, but now I actually look forward to it. And that cute little spatula removes every piece easily so I can continue with my recipes pronto. As for clean-up: what a breeze! The fact that most of the components can be put in the dishwasher is great. I cook almost all our meals and most of my recipes include lots of chopping of vegetables and herbs from my garden. My new mini processor turns that time-consuming chore into a quick and easy recipe step. Thank you, Cuisinart!
