Yes it can but the container is small so you may have to do several batches depending on the size of dish you are making
#5 Can you slice potatoes for scalloped potatoes? Can you shred cheese?
You get two of the blades for the spiralizer. I suspect you could do hard cheese but may have to purchase the optional blades to do scalloped potatoes. Makes great Curley fries.
#6 I cannot seem to find the other discs that do not come with the machine. How can I purchase them?
They can be ordered from Ninja directly, although you may not be able to find them on their website, I couldn’t. I called and ordered. But there is only one other disc, a slicer.
