Food Processor Recipes for Pasta Sauce and Dips

I love good food but I am a very busy personрЂ¦ like most of us, and have little time to really prepare a good meal.В  I love food processor or blender recipes because they tend to be super quick to prepare.В  I got myself one of those Magic Bullet blenders and use it to make lots of great, simple and delicious food.В  Below are some of my favorite recipes. Pesto and Spinach Sauce 12 fresh basil leaves Small bunch of spinach 2 tablespoons pine nuts 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 2 garlic cloves Pinch of salt Parmesan cheese Place everything in food processor and blend until it makes a grainy paste.В  From there heat on stove and use on your favorite pasta dish. Easy Alfredo Sauce ВЬ cup double heavy cream 2 tablespoons butter 2 garlic cloves ВЅ cup parmesan cheese Fresh parsley Salt and pepper Place everything in food processor and blend until smooth.В  Heat on stove until ready to serve.В  This recipe is rich but absolutely delicious. Bean Dip 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained ВЬ cup white onion 2 garlic cloves ВЬ cup red pepper ВЬ cup chicken or veggie broth 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar Cayenne pepper to taste Place all ingredients in food processor and blend until smooth.В  This recipe can be frozen and eaten at a late date if desired as well. Lemon, Garlic, Chickpea Dip 1 (15 ounce) can chick peas, drained 1-2 cloves garlic 1 lemon рЂ“ juiced 4 sprigs fresh thyme leaves Salt and pepper to taste Hot sauce to taste Put all ingredients in the food processor and blend until smooth.В  This yummy dip will leave you smelling like garlic but will taste absolutely delicious. The two pasta sauces and the two dip recipes can all easily be made in the blender or food processor with little fuss and mess.В  The only real cleaning that will need to be done is the food processor and hopefully there are others around to do that job.В  Each of these recipes will leave you with garlic breath but hopefully everyone will be eating the same thing so it wonрЂ™t matter.В  Besides garlic is good for us.
