Would this handy processor make "pasta" from veggies. I'm thinking if I can shred veggies to look like spaghetti noodles the kids will eat it.

Though the reversible shredding disc on the BSB530XL All In One™ will do a very good job of shredding the veggies in to smaller pieces, they may look more like shoe-string potatoes or straw then spaghetti.

Not really. When you feed vegetables down the chute into the spinning grater blade you get short ribbons of veggies, looking much like grated cheese. I don't think kids would be fooled for a minute. Aside from that though, my wife and I really like this machine. The unique design makes it more flexible than a conventional food processor.

Yes, best little chopper for left overs to make sandwich salads. I really like this chopper, I use it a lot instead of getting out food processor.

I used the bread maker to mix mine, so I can't see why you could do the same with a food processor. :)

Maybe.It has some quirks.The bowl design would be better,if it were round,like other food processors.I have not had it long enough .Will post on it later.

I have not done that yet BUT EVERYTHING I did for our Thanksgiving turned out great. The Food Processor part was GREAT. Sorry I could not answer your question but hope I helped.

It has a pulse and run speed, a disk blade that slices on one side and grates on the other and a chopper blade. I haven't tried the slicer blade with potatoes but where you feed the food in is rather small and a potato would likely have to be quartered before it could be fed into the food processor. I don't think it would be good for that purpose.

I definitely would NOT do that with a food processor. It's really best to use a mixer that explicitly says it's made to handle that (whether a hand mixer or the pricey type with an included bowl that works on its own).

Since all the answers indicate it makes spaghetti I don't want it. Linguini is flat and cooks much more even than spaghetti and my ex Italian wive wouldn't have spaghetti in her kitchen. I tend to concur with this assessment!

You might have to do this two or three times. This is not a food processor, which I couldn't afford 35 years ago, but it was wonderful for my girls. I know it's harder today with everyone working, but it's only a few minutes more time, and practically no clean up time!

I agree with the previous poster, that it will blend to a mush-like consistency, but not a juice. And for others who need it to chop and dice it does this well and we often use it for that purpose instead of using the food processor.

this is a strong good machine and works great. but i don't know how the shape of the potato will look like or is it going to be very small for chips. it will shred the potato no problem bc it does the carrots very well. hope this helps :)

Have not myself used for lettuce, but from other experiences, assume lettuce would shred well. Might make very nice salad or sandwich stuffing.

It turns vegetables like zucchini and squash into noodles, like spaghetti noodles. It's fast and easy and a great substitute for pasta. My kids love the veggie noodles.

My personal experience, the motor gets gummed up and breaks way too easily as it cannot handle much other than squishy vegetables and fruits. I would save your money and go for a food processor that has a better motor and blade mechanic.

If you can cut it with a butter knife, you can chop it with this. Its not like an electric food processor by any stretch. I only use it for very very very soft foods. Not too versatile whatsoever. I recommend good knife or an electric food processor. It's good for salsa and sauces.
