Before you despair of having yet another kitchen gadget cluttering up your drawers or cupboards, give this one a chance, as it will truly make chopping a breeze. What’s the big deal about chopping up some vegetables? Well, for starters, it takes time and effort. And when you’re in a rush to get a healthy dinner on the table, the last thing you want to do is spend time dicing and chopping onions, garlic, carrots, celery…you get the drift. Dragging out the food processor can be equally unappealing.
