Reviewing Cuisinart's 14-Cup Food Processors

By Moses Harun

Whether you have many mouths to feed or you just prefer to cook in large batches, you can use the Cuisinart food processor 14 cup appliance. It is a substantial appliance that is meant to chop or shred a large amount of vegetables, ice, or anything else you feel the need to process. There are myriad uses for this high capacity food processor. One of them is that you can cook your family nutrition-packed meals for less money.

When you bring home fresh vegetables and incorporate them into your meals, you are feeding your family good quality food. When you buy commercially processed vegetables from a supermarket, they usually are filled with sodium and preservatives. Packaged vegetables are not as nutritious as fresh vegetables. However, not many of us will spend time to prepare fresh vegetables daily.

One way to work around this is to mince and shred your vegetables for the week which can be done with the Cuisinart 14-cups food processor unit. This processor gives you plenty of room for a week's worth of vegetables, which you may store in a freezer bag and save for the week. This could save you time after a busy day and make it easy to use your fresh frozen vegetables in your meals. Unlike other frozen vegetables, your frozen vegetables will never have any preservatives.

Yet another task that you can do with the Cuisinart food processor 14 cup unit is cooking entire menus. You could use it for blending together sauces or gravy and even grind meat right into the gravy. If you enjoy homemade spaghetti sauce and want to blend everything together, you may make it by adding fresh tomatoes and meat into this appliance. After that, you put it in a pot and cook it, then freeze some for your next Italian night.

Shredded and grated cheese is more expensive than chunk cheese. You can save quite a bit of money by having fresh shredded and grated cheeses in a snap using the Cuisinart food processor 14 cup unit. Doing this by hand requires a long time, but when you shred cheese with the food processor, it takes a minute.

Are you a salad lover? You can make a meal-sized salad by shredding lettuce tomatoes and more directly into the Cuisinart 14-cup food processor. A salad without dressing will stay fresh in an air tight container for a week. You can use this for a side dish all week and serve the whole family their daily recommended allowance of vegetables.

Whether you cook in large batches or just want to save time so that you can have more fresh food to eat, you can accomplish this by working with the Cuisinart food processor 14 cup unit. When you are finished saving time and money and enjoying great food, you can load most of the parts into the dishwasher for effortless washing.
