Now matter how legit your cooking skills may or may not be, a good food processor is a kitchen must-have. The best food processor for you depends on a few things, like what you see yourself using it for, how much cash you're willing to dish out, and how much space your kitchen can spare.
Why make the investment? Basically blenders on steroids, food processors can chop, dice, blend, grind, and mince all sorts of ingredients and foods. Plus, unlike blenders, they don’t require any liquid to do the job.
“Food processors can be manual or handheld, but electric counter-top appliances that come with many different attachments for various jobs are the most common,” says Alex Lewis, RD, LDN, dietitian at Baze.
“The reason they’re so popular, and why I recommend investing in a food process, is that it saves you time," Lewis says. "And the more time saved when cooking, the more time you have to do other things you love—and the easier it is to meal prep."
Since food processors cut down on time-consuming, repetitive prep work like chopping, slicing, and dicing, they're super handy for simplifying pretty much any cooking you do—a win-win in so many situations. (Read: No more crying while chopping onions!)
