chopping up veggies - food processor suggestions

[Guest guest]

Have you thought about a Mandolin V-slicer. They are very easy to use, even

with arthritis and chop up things in different sizes and shapes in hardly any

time. I use mine daily.

Here is the one that I have.

chopping up veggies - food processor suggestions

 

 

 

 

 

I'm having trouble cutting up so many because sometimes my arthritis gives

me trouble. I'm going to purchase a good food processor and I need

suggestions. Also a blender that will blend up veggies well but not get too

hot in

doing it. Help!!! Thank you so much!

I wanted to mention that I got my Borner Mandolin V-slicer at a Home show, where

someone was demonstrating this, but I've seen them for sale at Bed Bath and

Beyond and Kitchen stores too.

These take so little effort to use.

I am behind with the messages, but spotted this one and had to respond. I do a

lot of canning and use my Borner V-slicer for mountains of spaghetti, pizza

sauce & salsa veggies, not to mention the daily workout it usually gets. IMO

Borner is the only brand to buy. After wearing out my first Borner I purchased

a couple of different brands as I too got mine at a Home Show and couldn't find

a replacement. The other brands weren't nearly as sharp as the Borner and were

a complete waste of money. I finally found the Borner brand on eBay and bought

two. I use my V-slicer nearly every day and will never buy anything but Borner!

I bought mine at Amazon.com and Borner V slicer  with its Solingen blades is the

only way to go. I agree with Suzan, the others are waste of time and money. The

model I own can be seen at
