This post is all about you guys. Gratitude is a big deal to me. I thank you. You readers, you who make my recipes each week and you who have continually supported me and my blog, many of you from the very beginning when I started it just over 2 years ago.
For the past 2 years, my blog has grown more than I ever imagined and I have YOU all to thank for it. I had a very specific vision when I started The Vegan 8 and it has become such a big part of my life and one of my greatest passions. Without you all making my recipes and loving them and sharing them with your family and friends, it would not grow. Yes, I work extremely hard in the kitchen testing to share recipes, which is important for a blog to grow since the recipes need to be great, but my gratitude goes to you guys who make them. Over and over. I have gotten to know many of you by name and know your stories and even many of your allergies. I have worked hard to show you I care about you and your requests and connect with you.
To show you my gratitude, I figured a big beautiful shiny NEW Red KitchenAid Food Processor would be a great Christmas present for one of you. I chose a food processor because it is the ONE major kitchen appliance I use the MOST out of everything. I absolutely cannot live without it and I use it more than anything else for my recipes. Since so many of you have stated you do not have one, I figured this would be the best gift to share as a giveaway.
I love receiving your comments, feedback and your emails each week. I love getting your recipe requests and although it takes me some time to get to them all, I’m truly touched that you reach out to me and have confidence in me to create something for you. You really don’t know how humbled I am by that. So, thank you.
So, to enter this giveaway, it’s very simple. All you have to do is TWO things: Enter the Giveaway below and be subscribed to my blog. Afterall, I’m giving you the opportunity to win a brand new appliance, you should already be subscribed I hope, haha! You can subscribe in the red box on the right side bar, if you haven’t yet!
This is not a sponsored post, I bought this with my own money, so I can only afford to ship it within the USA, so please don’t be mad at me if you live outside the US. ๐
Here is my beautiful daughter being a cute little hand model for the processor….this picture seriously made me laugh!
GOOD LUCK! One of you will get this beautiful new KitchenAid Food Processor for Christmas this year! Exciting!

One of your recipes ๐
Vegan Energy Bites!:
Oats
Natural peanut butter
Dark chocolate
Dates
Chia seeds
Coconut
I have NO food processor, and have to make these by hand… in addition to hummus, guacamole, bean burgers, and etc.
Please help me prevent capal tunnel with this extraordinary gift! I would be so appreciative and grateful!
The first thing I’d make is a cauliflower crust for some vegan pizza! Thanks for the giveaway, Brandy…you rock!
My favorite things to make in the food processor are banana nicecream and date balls. I love them both so I choose both ๐
Perhaps some nut butters. My food processor has been broken and this would be wonderful to win!
Apple chutney, pie crusts, salsas and of course nut butters.
I’d make some homemade nut butter!
Cashew queso of course!!! Also, your cream cheeses, haven’t tried the strawberry yet, but loved the blueberry ๐
Almond butter, for sure!
You just keep giving! I would probably chop cabbage, carrots, apples and parsley for a big micro salad and go from there.
First thing I would tackle is a big batch of nut butter
Hummus or pesto! Love them both.
yay!
Thanks for this generous opportunity!
I would make sunflower butter!
That is a beautiful machine. It would be a great help in preparing my foof.
I would make Hummus. LOTS of HUMMUS! and my food processor is about 10 years old and ready to die!! I am afraid it will not last much longer! I started a plant based diet about 3 months ago, have lost 46 lbs so far and am using my food processor multiple times a week – once it goes i will be in TROUBLE!! I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY WANT TO WIN THIS!!! OH – And I just found your site and am getting really excited about all the recipes. I still have a lot of weight to lose, and could so use this to get me there. thank you for investing your own money into this wonderful give away.. !! ๐
I would make chick pea blondies! Love your recipes ๐
What a generous gift, Brandi! Thank you for always thinking of your readers.
I’ve been dying to try one of your ice cream recipes, so that will be the first thing I make if the Giveaway gods are with me. ๐
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours, Brandi!
Hummus!
This is so generous of you! I am entering because part of my food processor just broke and I need it! It is a toss-up between making kale butter (engine 2) and hummus. Love both of these.
I would make veggies. Lots and lots of chopped veggies. I really need this!
What’s the first thing I’d make?? Um, EVERYTHING! ๐ Definitely need to try to make my own nut butters, esp. cashew butter! Oh please please please pick me!!!
Oh my goodness, I am already dreaming of all of the things I would love to make with this KitchenAid. I think the first thing would have to be a nut butter though!!! Mmmmm. Nothing beats homemade nut butter!
I would first make Hummus as this is a family favorite.
