If you can have fun with your veggies, you can certainly have fun with your fruit! My family is full of fruit lovers. In fact, we usually eat fruit with every meal. Maybe that’s why I was itching to make some changes to our every day options.
Here are two easy fruit recipes that take less than 5 minutes to make. Yes, you heard correctly. Less than five minutes to make. With just one slight ingredient tweak, you will enhance the taste of your average grape and raspberry. These recipes are tasty as mid-afternoon snacks but, they can also hold their weight as desserts too. Both require refrigeration and are quite refreshing. Your only challenge: trying not to eat the whole bowl of fruit.
And, if these recipes aren’t easy enough, how about an opportunity to win your very own Tupperware Chop n Prep Chef?
It’s the perfect earth-friendly kitchen gadget to turbo chop fresh herbs, vegetables, berries, cheeses and more in record time. It has an easy-pull cord mechanism which saves time and effort while eliminating the cost of expensive electricity. Plus, the Chop ‘N Prep™ Chef is small enough to store in the cupboard, drawer or pantry (for us apartment dwellers). I received my first Chop N Prep Chef a few weeks ago and have been using it ever since. My kids love to help chop veggies by simply turning the pull chord a few times. It’s fun and effective at the same time.

White Chocolate Raspberry Flowers
Ingredients:
- 1 cup raspberries
- 1 cup white chocolate morsels
Instructions:
- Wash raspberries and air dry completely.
- Stuff white chocolate morsels into raspberry center.
- Refrigerate at least 30 minutes before eating.

- Sprinkle sea salt over top (add more if desired).
- Sprinkle rosemary on top.
- Serve immediately
I would use it to chop vegetables for dishes such as potato salad, gumbo, and many others.
Tammara Callahan » yum! gumbo sounds so good right now : ) good luck
The Chop and Prep would be a perfect accessory for use in the galley of our sailboat! Space is extremely limited, and the compactness of this appliance not needing to be plugged in makes it a win-win!
Vanessa » oooh- this gadget would be perfect- good luck
I would use the Chop N Press to incorporate more fruits and veggies into my family’s meals. Sometimes, the effort and time to chop up fruits and veggies make me forgo these healthy items for less healthy but more convenient meal choices.
Paj Ann » great! and yes, this would totally get you excited and interesting in chopping veggies. good luck!
I’d use it to create salad toppings!
What wouldn’t I use the Chop and Prep for? I’d have my kids chop vegetable and fruit and nuts while they help me cook. They love watching the Food Network and are very into the idea of cooking (when not playing xbox).
This would be a help in chopping the veggies that go in gazpacho soup and also for chopping the chocolate that my husband puts in a chocolate dessert.
Did you tell Claire about salted grapes w/ Olive Oil??? She got me hooked … I follow you everywhere, and now I follow Tupperware too.
Peace
Entering your Give-Away!: I’d use this to chop any and all of my veggies. Currently I have on hand some zucchini, cucumber, bell peppers, carrots, fresh mint, basil… Perhaps I can chop up some of my garlic cloves, too! : )
I would use it to chop onions and garlic and nuts and on and on!

I would use the Chop N Prep to make toppings for pizzas, make stir fry’s, salsas, salads- both fruit and veggie, and healthy snacks for my daughter and myself. I would have SO MUCH FUN with this!!!
for salad prep
I’d use it on onions and garlic, I hate to chop both.
I’d chop almonds for sprinkling on recipes
