My brother in law just told me last night that he used his mix n' chop to make pickle relish. He seasoned sliced pickles (my dad's recipe) and then used the mix 'n chop to make them into pickle relish right in the jar!:cool: Thought I would share... he's come up with a couple of really good tips for me like this... oh, and he just got laid off from his job that was keeping him from signing!!!!
 
We use ours for making guacamole:) makes some nice chunks.
 
That's a great use! I'll remember that!

And congratulations on the possible recruit too!

Thanks... not that I'm happy he got laid off or anything, but he really wanted to do PC.

I'll have to try the quacamole... I love it, but am pretty much the only one I know who does, so I don' t get it very often.
 
I used to not like it and then I tried it one day when my hubby made it and i'm hooked.

We interrupt this thread for a momentary hi-jack...

I just noticed the way "guacamole" was spelled in your post (NO--I am absolutely NOT correcting your spelling!!!). My 6-year-old used to call guacamole "crack-amolee" and we still call it that. It's one of those words that I would snarl at someone if they even attempted to correct him. I LOVE when kids mispronounce things!

And now, back to your regularly scheduled thread...

Ah, yes, that would be a q, not a g, wouldn't it!:o I hate spelling and used to drop out of the elementary school class spelling bees on purpose on the first or second word, even if I knew it... same kid won every year anyway:rolleyes:
I think that was typed about the time my two year old was bugging me to refill his sippy. His new word is accident. I got him out of time out the other night for throwing a fit about brushing his teeth and he said "but mommy, it was an accident." I don't really think that there's anything accidental about a fit, do you?! And how do you not laugh at that?!
Ok, I'm done with my tangent too... back to the Mix 'N Chop
 
There's no q in guacamole...
 
I used it the other day to crush graham crackers into crumbs for a trifle I was making. Not sure if this use has already been shared!
 
I used mine while camping in a 20 oz. beverage cup, with 8 oz. Lo-fat yogurt, some of our Cinnamon Plus, 2 pkts. Splenda, and a few strawberries. It made a quick, easy breakfast, and the Mix N Chop did a great chopping job on the strawberries. It turned the yogurt a pretty pink too!

I love it when kids put their own interpretation on words too! At our house, we don't eat graham crackers......we eat "gramma crackers".:D The first time DS had one was at Grandma's house....so of course, he thought it was a "gramma cracker" - we thought that was just too cute - so now, that is all we call them.

We also don't eat ravioli - just rollies.:D :D

Were you really camping in a 20 oz. cup?:)
 
I use the Mix & Chop to break up boiled eggs for egg salad. Another good use is when making smoothies in the blender to push the fruit and ice down safely.
