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!

I have never owned one but I want one. If I had one I would make homemade raw Nutella and pancakes with this baby!
Would love to make nut butters, gluten free oats to flours, cookie crumbs =), hummus, pie crust, pasta sauces , salsas and a whole lot more =) Wish to have one for more baking quality time with my daughters. Thank you and Happy Holidays!
I would loveeee to make some dough for Christmas cookies and desserts. every recipe calls to use a food processor and I don’t own one so this would completely fulfil my culinary dreams (thanksgiving was hard-had to use pre-made crust 😉 )
I will probably make nut cheese!!
Of all the goodies I could make with a new food processor, I would make almond butter first. I LOVE it with a fresh, organic banana after I come home from a workout. Sometimes I just eat them together, sometimes I blitz them in the blender as a smoothie with a little coconut water & scoop of chocolate protein powder.
I would make nut butter and then use the nut butter to make your cookies!
I so need this — I have to manually hold the lid down on mine so the lid stays on… Merry Christmas and thank you!
Garlicky hummus!
First thing I would make is hummus! Our family loves hummus
The first thing that I would make in my new food processor is a batch of your Pecan Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies.

I would make coconut butter because it can be used in so many of your delicious desserts.
I would make a mocha truffle cheesecake

I would make my own nut butter!
I would make pesto! Thanks so much for the giveaway!
This would be awesome for making your vegan cream cheese! Thanks for the chances to win!

You always have such creative ideas, I enjoy getting your recipes every week.
Maybe I will experiment first with a press-in GF crust. And some sort of pie. Pecan cream? Grasshopper?
Have to see if I win it first. Actually I would not keep it myself, I would give it to my son who leaving home and setting up his own apartment. (Don’t worry, he is a great cook (but has nothing to cook with!)
Thanks!
