Recipes Using the SHGL-307 Food Processor

Slicing Function

Shredded Brussels Sprouts
1 lb brussels sprouts
1 tbsp maple syrup
¼ tsp salt
2 tbsp margarine

Using the Slicing disc, slice all the Brussels sprouts. After they are all sliced, pick through them and remove the center of the sections (the tough, solid stem). While doing this, also break the slices into shredded segments with your hands. Place the shredded sprouts in a steamer and steam over high heat for 7-10 minutes or until they are slightly tender. Meanwhile, add the maple syrup, salt and margarine to a medium mixing bowl. Add the Brussels sprouts to the bowl and toss until the sauce is melted and blended together.  Serve immediately.

Slicing and Blender Functions:

Steak Fajitas
1 lb flank or skirt steak
1 large yellow onion sliced and cut into thin strips
2 large bell peppers sliced and cut into thin strips
*you may slice the above ingredients with the slicing disk!

Marinade:
Juice from 1 lime
2 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic
½ tsp ground cumin
½ jalapeno pepper – seeded and ribs removed
¼ cup fresh cilantro
Mix all the marinade ingredients together in the food processor.

Let the steak sit in the marinade for at least an hour (the longer is sits, the more flavorful the steak!). Heat a large cast iron pan or griddle to high heat. Add a tsp of olive oil to the pan. Add the steak and fry on each side for 3 minutes or until desired doneness (3 minutes per side will produce a medium rare steak). If the pan starts to smoke too much, reduce the heat to medium high. Remove the steak from the pan and let sit for 5 minutes. Reduce the pan heat to medium high if you have not already. If necessary, add a little more oil to the pan. Add the onions and bell peppers. Cook, stirring frequently, 5 minutes or until the onions are slightly translucent. Slice the meat against the grain into thin slices. Serve immediately with shredded cheese, salsa, sour cream, shredded lettuce, guacamole or avocado and warm flour tortillas.

Chopping Function:

Grandma’s Meatloaf Recipe
2 lbs. meat – cubed
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
½ green pepper – chopped (SHGL-307 Chopping Function)
1 small onion – chopped
1 tsp poultry seasoning
¼ cup milk
½ egg
2 slices of day old bread

Topping:
Equal parts of ketchup and Worcestershire sauce

Grinder Function:

Homemade Peanut Butter
Peanuts
Optional – Oil (such as vegetable oil) and salt

To grind nuts it’s best to do it in small batches.  Again, pulse the food processor until you get the size desired. Scrape down the sides of the bowl often. The Liv Sure food processor is great for making nut butter and also for finely chopped nuts. Tip: when chopping nuts for recipe use, you may add a teaspoon or two of granulated sugar. This allows you to finely chop the nuts without them turning into butter.

Put the peanuts into your food processor and grind on pulse until the peanut butter is as chunky or smooth as you like it. Add a little oil and/or salt to taste if you want to. Be sure to refrigerate the homemade peanut butter since it does not contain any preservatives. 

Chopping and Blender Functions:

Easy No Bake Apple Pie

Crust:
¼ cup pecans
¼ cup walnuts

1/8 tsp nutmeg
½ tsp lemon juice

Chop the apples in the food processor until desired consistency (you may also use peaches!).  Mix the chopped apples and the rest of the ingredients together in a bowl.  Top the pie with ¾ cup pecans that have been grinded in the food processor.
