3-Cup Mini Chopper

I've had [this mini food processor](https://a.co/d/4sznaUp) from Cuisinart for years, and I love it.

I have a 3 cup Cuisinart food processor. It works great for any kind of small chopping tasks.

What do you use a food processor for? 90% of my usage is for 2 things. Salsa and chopped nuts (for pad thai or baklava). I have the smallest 3 cup Cuisinart. For my salsa recipe it does require doing 2 batches, or baklava nuts needs multiple batches. I can't recall a situation where I wished for a bigger food processor. But, I also don't have situations where I am debating "I have to get the food processor out or I can do it by hand." I just grab the food processor. I will add per another commenter I do have a stand mixer, so I am not trying to use a food processor in situations where the stand mixer is better.

I have a Cuisinart 3 cup that is basically the same as your KitchenAid. I got it off Amazon for $20 but the price has since increased unfortunately.

I have a tiny cousinart. It works well when I have a small amount to chop. I’m very good with a knife so I only use it for a fine chop. If I’m grinding spice I have a second hand coffee grinder dedicated to spices.

I have a mini cuisinart food processor that I use daily for garlic and ginger and making salad dressing and a million other things. I even have like three or four extra bowls and blades for it because I use it so much. Cannot recommend it highly enough!

I have a Cuisinart Mini food processor which I use for small stuff when I don't want to haul out the full size I also have an immersion blender but that is really more for pureeing soups or equivalent versus making a small amount of something like may or pesto.
