Equipment Corner.....

Due to the economy, many of us are spending more and more time in our kitchens. This is not a bad thing, meals prepared at home are healthier and much less expensive. I highly recommend a food processor, many of you may already have one. You could certainly start out with a mini cuisinart, they run about $50 and would be worth the investment. You will save money making your own graham cracker crumbs, bread crumbs, and chopped nuts. I also use mine to make small batches of salad dressings and to chop herbs. If you have one and seldom use it, please get it out! It is one of the safest items in the kitchen as you can't turn it on unless the top is properly attached. Don't be afraid, you can do it!!
