Smoothies!

Published by americanmama under Uncategorized Edit This

I assure you that one of these blogs will address my brand-new, high-energy fitness plan… but for now we will talk Smoothies!!

 I unpacked the Vitamix today and lo and behold, it is all it’s cracked up to be.  Within minutes I had produced a perfect Strawberry concoction, consisting of one cup of seedless grapes; one cup of frozen strawberries; and one small banana.  Didn’t even need ice!  I fired up the larger-than-life Vitamix, popped them in the machine in that order, and life was so very good…

 The Vita-Mix came with a binder of recipes, most of which seem easy and tasty.  Soups can be created and hot within minutes, given the friction produced by the high-speed motor.  This turned out to be a rather good purchase, all things considered~ next up, Vita-Mix sorbets and ice cream (with a few carrots and some cabbage thrown in for good measure!)
