With all of my unique and outside of the box recipes…

At least I think they are? ha! I mean, have you ever heard of a CHICKEN SMOOTHIE…

One might think… My kitchen dexterity is ON POINT.

But let me be entirely honest with you… Because that’s what I am all about…

I ain’t no kitchen NINJA. (Okay, maybe I have like an ORANGE BELT).

If only you saw the behind the scenes footage of GiGi Eats Celebrities.

I might attempt to Ninjutsu the crap out of food… But I tend to always need a “helping hand” in order to defeat my “opponents”.

However, when I enlist the aid of a friend… Or a kitchen contraption (or BOTH) to help me out… We tend to get the job done…

Of course… Not without oodles of “knotty” FORKARY!

Now while I may not be an advanced kitchen ninja (you know, the peeps with the black belts and purple stripes… Or Paul Bocuse?) …

I do have REAL ninjas in my life… And they joined me in the kitchen this week to make something TWISTED.

Because I know my ninjas are professional risk takers… I thought I’d make them feel right in their element by proposing we make… GLUTEN/GRAIN, DAIRY, SUGAR, SOY, NUT, AND FRUIT-FREE SOFT PRETZELS… But of course…Since neglecting all of those ingredients and because as I said, my belt rank in NINJAREE isn’t so high, I had to allow us to cheat a little bit…

With a PRETZEL MOLD PAN.

I KNOW you are curious about whether or not we were able to HOOK PUNCH these pretzels… BUT it would be rude to reveal the video before… Introducing my DOJO MASTER GUESTS!

First up… We have Nicole. Weighing in at… Okay. No, I am not announcing fighters into the ring. I’m just introducing guests into my kitchen thus those statistics do not matter! What does matter is the reason why I have dubbed Nicole a “ninja”… Because she is actually a working stunt actress, or in other words, you know those “bad ass” actresses you see in movies, who you THINK are jumping off of buildings, falling off of motorcycles and rolling under speeding semi trucks… And sword fighting… Well if the actresses you’re thinking of have long brunette hair, they very well may have actually been NICOLE! Oh and she’s also HELEN in the live-action show WATERWORLD at Universal Studios, Hollywood!

My second, equally as important ninja guest… The Ninja® Intelli-Sense™ Kitchen System with Auto-Spiralizer™. Weighing in at 20 pounds (with all accessories)… Because perhaps the weight matters when it comes to this kitchen helper… This contraption goes absolutely ABOVE AND BEYOND any other blender you’ve ever invited into your kitchen. This Ninja has ONE smart base that transforms into four high-performance appliances while 12 chef-designed Smart Programs that knows just how powerful it needs to whirl in order to get the(Pic consistency you’re looking for. My Ninja actually told me that it created a slogan for itself: Snap. Tap. Go. Talk about good branding!
