What Kind of Chopper Do You Use?
Okay, so I'm appealing to the wonderful friends and ladies in my life that cook for their families. For years I have used a Pampered Chef chopper for all my dicing and chopping. It's been a great tool, but . . . is there something easier? A small food processor? I need something easy to clean and easy to pull out to use. Something you use almost everyday. I know I'm super lazy, but honestly, when I have lots to chop and dice for a meal my arm gets tired, ya know? I know I'm in desperate need of the tricep burning exercise the chopper gives me, but most times I need my chopping done faster. I went out and bought the OXO chopper, and it's TERRIBLE! Every time I have to chop up an onion (which is often) I dread it! So I need something new. I can get a new Pampered Chef chopper, but my guess is there's something better out there that every one's using that I know nothing about. So please share! And then if you see me with flabby triceps you'll know that at least I'm happy because I've found something to replace my chopper!!!

You make me laugh -- miss you. Sorry, I have no suggestions to offer. All I have is a knife and cutting board. Boring! I'm pining for a food processor, however, so please pass on any good recommendations.
Sorry, same bad news. I only use a chopper for super fine cutting since I don't like to clean all the pieces. A small Cuisinart food processor would be great though... Mom and I looked at those. :)
Sorry about my blog disappearing, it all happened faster than I thought and I wasn't able communicate the change in advance...glad you figured out where we were posting :)
As for your question, I use a knife and cutting board usually and only pull out the food processor if I need everything to be finely chopped. For me it's much easier to have to clean a knife and cutting board than all the pieces of the processor.
I have a small cuisinart food processor that I got at Costco and I LOVE it!! Super easy to clean too.
I often use my food processor...it's not super small, but works SO fast that it's worth getting it out (just from a low cupboard), and rinsing it with hot soapy water is a breeze, or it's dishwasher safe. I use it a lot and it's saved me tons of time!!! It's just a simple, Hamilton Beach brand. You could probably get it at Wal-Mart or Target?
