EdNerd Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 My wife has gone through the Whole 30, and is attempting to stay on track as closely as possible. It gets difficult - she's got fibro, and there are days she just can't do anything, much less prep and cook a decent meal. She tries to keep some stuff on hand, but it's hit and miss at times. (Umm ... me?? I'm eating better, but I didn't go W30. But I do eat a lot healthier these days, since my wife does all the cooking!!) Her latest trial is burning out her blender making almond nut butter. It's not totally burned out - it still makes a decent smoothie. But don't ask it to do the almonds again! So I figure it's time for a dedicated food processor that meant for the heavier stuff, like working for several minutes at a stretch grinding up a bunch of almonds. We're looking at the Cuisinart 14-cup machine. It looks good for our price range. Are there any other recommmendations? Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Type Whole30 followed by whatever you're looking for, and you'll get links to past discussion threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beets Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 FWIW, I have that Cuisinart--since 2005--and I was just thinking today how great it still is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsTime Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Three days ago I got a Cuisinart 8 cup food processor for my birthday. Have used it for slicing onions, shredded sweet potatoes and made an awesome batch of almond butter. So far I love this food processor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
