Silesian dumplings, kopytka, minced cutlets, Roman roast – it's quite easy to fall into a grinder routine. However, it's high time to disenchant this equipment: with it, you can prepare many more dishes! In this text, we suggest what dishes you can prepare using a meat grinder with a shredder. Let's get started!

 A meat grinder is one of the most versatile kitchen appliances. Thanks to this device and special accessories, you can not only grind meat into cutlets, but also chop vegetables for a salad or squeeze juice from soft fruits.

 What can you make with a meat grinder? Dinner and more!

 Don't know what to prepare for breakfast? Go for healthy spreads! If you're bored with everyday sandwiches with cheese and ham, try, for example, bean spread with poppy seeds. Just grind canned beans, add some olive oil, poppy seeds and sparkling water for consistency, and then season with salt, pepper or thyme. Do you prefer a sweet breakfast? Grind a handful of dates soaked in water and some walnuts. Add cocoa to the ground mass, as well as some milk and honey, if dates are not sweet enough for you. Spread the resulting paste on bread and your nutritious breakfast is ready!

How to use a grinder to prepare dinner? If you have some potatoes left from the previous day, make potato croquettes! First, use a potato grinder. Add an egg, grated cheese, a little potato and wheat flour, and finally season with salt and pepper. If you feel like it, add some fried spinach to the mass, then coat in egg and breadcrumbs or ground nuts and fry. Before frying, you can also stuff your croquettes with mushrooms stewed with a bit of garlic. Even the pickiest eater will love this dinner!

 If you prefer light, vegetable and fruit dinners, opt for salads and juices from a meat grinder! Get a shredder for the grinder, which will make their preparation easier. What vegetables should be combined in a salad? We choose red cabbage, carrots and apple or orange. It is worth seasoning the finished mix with a bit of honey and lemon juice. However, if you can't imagine dinner without traditional sandwiches, don't forget about adding fruit and vegetables and serve them with juice, e.g. tomato juice, which you can also prepare in a grinder.

Poppy seed grinder - but is it only for it?

Piegus, poppy seed cake and cheesecake - aren't these the first desserts that come to mind when you think about what sweets can come out of a meat grinder? We all love each of these delicacies, but sometimes it's worth trying something different! If you're a fan of cheesecake delicacies, try the recipe for a plant-based "cheesecake" with tofu, cashews or millet. Just add some oil, lots of lemon juice, some plant-based drink, sugar and vanilla to ground tofu, nuts or cooked groats, and then bake the mixture on a shortcrust pastry base, e.g. made of crushed biscuits mixed with fat. Such a cake will win the hearts of even the most ardent traditionalists!

 Use a nut grinder to prepare a perfect creamy mass from them, which you can use to fill pancakes or spread on a sponge cake. Pour milk over the ground nuts and bring to a boil in a pot, stirring frequently, then leave to cool. Cream the soft butter with powdered sugar until fluffy, add some vanilla or aromatic alcohol, and then - the milk-nut mass, and it's ready!

 What dish from a meat grinder do you fancy? Potato croquettes? Tofurnik? Or maybe a simple salad? Regardless of what you decide on, you will need a good kitchen appliance - a meat grinder with a shredder - which you will certainly find in the Zelmer brand offer.
