![]() KitchenAid 13-Cup Food Processor with Dicing Kit: While adept at slicing, this model had issues uniformly chopping vegetables, and cheese would often get stuck in corners.Serious Eats / Vicky Wasik The Competition A built-in timer automatically tracks processing duration, making it dead easy to know just how long you've let the machine run. (Getting tomato slices on the thinnest setting was difficult, but we were able to cut consistent millimeter-thick slices on setting 2, 4.13-millimeter slices on setting 5, and 6.5-millimeter slices on setting 8.) The disk's safety position, which keeps the sharp edge retracted when in storage, prevents accidental dings and cuts. The adjustable slicing blade was also a pleasure to use, offering 24 thickness settings, from 0.3 to eight millimeters. It excelled, in particular, at chopping consistency-it was the best at grinding whole almonds into powdery flour. Otherwise, the Breville finished at or near the top in many of our tests. ![]() While this model didn't leak a drop when processing five cups of water, its smaller, nesting work bowl did leak when we pulsed a wet ingredient in it. From easy-to-follow arrows indicating which way to turn and lock the bowl and lid, to graduated volumes (in cups, fluid ounces, and liters) on the outside of the work bowl and a max-fill line for both thin and thick liquids, the Breville is easy to assemble, use, and take apart. Almond milk, in my opinion, doesn’t have a strong taste (so you’re getting more fruit flavor) and is light.What we liked: This large Breville Sous Chef and its smaller, 12-cup cousin are the most user-friendly food processors we tested. I also like almond milk for my smoothies, but you could totally do another milk, like coconut milk (or coconut water), cow’s milk, or cashew milk. Okay, now that we’ve had “the talk” (about blenders), let’s get onto the smoothie recipe. □Īnyway…Ninja also has a smoothie-only blender, which could be a great option, too. I never thought I’d write the word “vessel” in a recipe post, but here we are. Easy clean-up, too, since it’s all done in one vessel. The cup additions make smoothie-marking a breeze, too. This is a blender that you can use for ANY recipe and in an efficient manner. I have the “ Ninja Professional Countertop Blender with 1100-Watt Base, 72oz Total Crushing Pitcher and (2) 16oz Cups for Frozen Drinks and Smoothies (BL660).” So, do yourself a smoothie favor by purchasing a new blender if you don’t have one currently capable. If not, you’re going to get frustrated with frozen fruit stuck in the blades and the process will surely take more than two minutes. You gotta have a good blender to make a good smoothie. Why frozen fruit and not fresh fruit? There are many reasons.īut here’s the thing. BUT you can do any frozen fruit combo (mixed berries, strawberry banana) you like, which is the beauty of this recipe! Mama does, however, have time to create a simple fruit smoothie that makes her feel energized, healthy, and good for me.įor this particular smoothie, I use a frozen “mixed fruit” assortment of sliced peaches, seedless red grapes, pineapple chunks, and strawberries. Because mama doesn’t have time for a 100-step smoothie. ![]() ![]() The best part is that it’s a very easy smoothie to make. It can be made with any milk or frozen fruit.įor the last 5 days or so (I think they call that a week), I’ve been making a frozen fruit smoothie each morning. This 2-minute 2-ingredient frozen fruit smoothie makes a perfectly ice-cold, thick smoothie. ![]()
