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. 🙂
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!

Hummus! I prefer a food processor for hummus, since it’s easier to get every last finger-licking bit of it out! ?
Wow How Exciting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just started making my own nutbutters <3 and I would loooooooove to win a nicer, bigger and definitely prettier food processor since my blades are really being put to the test with my current processor!
BTW, dinner last night was your Black Beans and Rice bowl with the fabulous mustard/maple syrup sauce. Such a HUGE HIT in my household!!!! Lol my daughter doesn't even use a utensil, she scoops it out with either tortilla chips or doritos. =)
You ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Di 😉
Hummus! lots and lots of hummus!
Isn’t it funny how fast hing can grow or change… You have a wonderful giving spirit – how amazing that you purchased this to give away to your followers – I have never heard of anything like that!! Truly an inspiration!
I do not have a food processor, we didn’t have one as a child, so I make sue with a blender and good old fashioned arm power for most recipes… It would be nice to have a good food processor though.
Merry Christmas to you and your family!
I’ve never owned a food processor and have just started eating vegan now so I’m super excited to try out new recipes!
Hummus, of course. Then I would make the amazing Nutty Red Pepper & Basil Dip from the Whole Foods site. It’s divine! Thanks for the opportunity! Happy holidays!
I would love to make date paste for homemade chocolate pecan turtles!
Wow – this is beautiful enough to leave out on the counter! I would make cranberry salad, hummus, and nut butters. Thank you and Happy Holidays!
This is SO sweet of you, Brandi!!!? I would make protein balls, hummus, and try your “cream cheese” which I haven’t tried to make yet because my current cheap food processor is on its last leg and couldn’t handle it.?
I would make a dip for holiday festivities.. maybe artichokes, avocado, spinach, white beans, and spices
.
Brandi, love your blog and your amazing recipes! I would make your almond butter over and over again. Thank you so much for your hard work!
I’d use it for chopping veggies and making hummus, for starters!
I am in the mood for hummus. I can munch while looking over your blog for new recipes to try.
Nut milks, butters and pasta sauces!
I would make almond, hazelnut and sunbutter! My three year old has lots of food sensitivities but loves her nut butters and I wish I had the capability to make these for her every week. What a generous gift to bless someone with this Christmas.
HUMMUS!!!!
I would do some nut butter, obviosly 😉
A staple must have in all kitchens. I would first make Gluten-free Banana Pancakes.
I would love to make cashew butter for some raw tarts or yummy sweet treats! Thanks for the fun give-away!
We just bought a new house and this would be an awesome addition to my kitchen. Great giveaway! love your blog 🙂 x
I’ll make hummus! This is such a beautiful, festive food processor. Beautiful for the holidays! Thank you for all your great recipes!
If I won the food processor, the first thing I would make would be some chickpea mock-tuna salad. It’s yummy! Chickpeas, celery, carrots, onion, red peppers, vegan mayo, mustard, salt, pepper to taste….serve with veggies or an toasted bread slices…..true yumminess! The food processor would make it so much quicker and easier. Happy Eating everyone!
Too hard to choose just one…I’m thinking hummus, pesto or salsa ?
The first thing I would make in this food processor is those Sunflower Brownies of yours! My cheap food processor got a big crack in it just before I came across that recipe on your site and I’ve been DYING to make them ever since! Brownies were my favorite childhood dessert, and I would love to try making healthier, vegan brownies 🙂
thank you for the giveaway..i Love KitchenAid products..You are sooo generous..i would Love to win this!!!!
