I’m a food processor foodie so when this book came in for review I grabbed it immediately.  And, I’m happy to report I wasn’t disappointed.

For the purpose of the review we are asked to test three recipes.  My first choice was “Waldorf Parma Salad.”   This was certainly a different take on a Waldorf salad being it didn’t have the traditional addition of grapes.  However, they weren’t missed and the salad, accompanied with crusted bread, made a very filling lunch.

The second recipe I tested was “Orange Butter Cookies.”  Using the food processor made a simple recipe even more simple.  The richness of the butter and the strong accent of orange pleased the palate.   I will be making these again.

The “Sweet Potatoes and Carrots with Chickpea Topping” was my third recipe to test.  Of course, using the food processor made making this dish a breeze.  The combination of sweet potatoes and carrots is always great but topped with chickpeas made it even much better.  I found this dish a little too sweet so next time I make it I will eliminate the brown sugar.

Do I recommend “650 Best Food Processor Recipes?”  Yes, I sure do.  With that many recipes you could have your processor going daily for two years.  Perusing the remainder of the recipes I found that there are many I will be making in the very near future.  The ingredients would be found in most pantries and certainly in local grocery stores.  This is a winner.
