Cold Summer Soups

 

Soups are not just for Summer as Laura, blogger of  Me & Mr Jones  proves with this delightful Summery Gazpacho.


"Raw veg can be a bit blah if you're eating them on their own, but blitz a few up together, and 'Hey presto' - gazpacho! The thought of a cold soup can be a little off-putting but please give this delicious bowl of fresh veg a chance! It's really light, perfect for Summer and so nutritious! It's also ridiculously quick and easy to make."

super Smoothies

 

Maybe an obvious choice but making a smoothie is a breeze with the right food processor. As they are so easy to create, you can also afford to be a bit more creative, like blogger Nupur of UK Rasoi, with this fabulous  Kiwi Vanilla Coconut Smoothie.


"Packed with more Vitamin C than an equivalent amount of orange, the bright green flesh of the kiwifruit, speckled with tiny black seeds, adds a dramatic tropical flair to any fruit salad. This recipe is a smooth and refreshing blend of kiwi with coconut and vanilla. A delightful Summer drink!"

Nutella

 

Arguably our favourite sugary breakfast spread, it can often be hard to keep the jar from emptying too quickly. This is why your food processor is on hand to ensure you won't be left wanting for your chocolate fix in the morning. See how The Full Plate blog used the food processor, a Magimix 4200 XL, to create homemade Nutella.

Cheese

I scream, you scream, we all scream for homemade ice-cream! And it's not hard to see why. As ice-cream prices have dramtically climbed in the past 50 years, homemade ice-cream is the perfect option for those with a nifty kitchen appliance.
