I made myself a protein shake in the blender this morning, and it was a gawdawful mess. I was trying to scrape the sides down to get the chocolate mixture out, then I had to take the whole thing apart to wash it, and because I had used ice in the shake, I couldn’t use my immersion blender, I had to use the big blender and I was in a snit.
I knew that Nisha had a Magic Bullet, the blender in the infomercials that uses a cup to mix your liquids in, and then you can drink it right from the cup, so I called her.
She told me that Macy’s had a knock-off on sale for $19.99, a much better price than the $50+ for the Magic Bullet and since hubby was working, I trekked off to Macy’s to buy one.
I bought it, came home, washed it, and faster than a New Yawk minute I had dumped in vanilla yogurt, a bit of splenda, fresh strawberries and frozen raspberries/blueberries/blackberries, and it blended it to perfection.
Wow, I’m hooked. You all know how I love a good kitchen gadget, and this little blender works great. I Googled it and read really good reviews before I bought it, and it’s perfect. Clean-up is so easy, it’s so much better than that big old blender. And yes, I have a smoothie machine in the garage, sitting on a shelf, but it’s a pain in the patootie, too, because it’s hard to wash. I’m old now, I like simple things….
So now I can bore you all with my smoothie recipes.
Here’s the specs on the blender for you - and here’s the link if you want to see what it’s all about
