The Vita-Mix Blender is the MOST AMAZING blender! It makes it so easy to eat healthy and gives me no more excuses!
It can:
1. Juice Whole Foods in 60 Seconds
2. Cook Soup to Steaming in 4 Minutes
3. Make Frozen Treats in 30 Seconds
4. Grind Grain and Knead Dough in one 5 Minute Operation
Can you say this about YOUR blender? This amazing machine makes my beloved Magic Bullet almost obsolete! There are no attachments, it is so simple to clean, and the container is even BPA-Free!
I have loaded my fridge with fruits and veggies and I am going to make at least one of the fantastic recipes every single day. (It comes with an entire book of them!).
And the best news? I have one to give away to a reader!
To enter, please visit Vita-Mix’s website and tell me which one of the green smoothies you would make if you win. The contest is open to US addresses only and the winner will be chosen at random on Sunday, January 11th at 9pm.
So gang, what should I make first?

I’d make the Montel’s Green Smoothie it sounds delish!!! bananas, oranges, lettuce…mmmmm mmmmm
and would be excellent for making nut butters too instead of way I do it now
January 8th, 2009 at 9:41 am 2
kale and pear, definitely. has me drooling already!
January 8th, 2009 at 9:48 am 3
Love Vitamix!
I’d go for the Emerald Smoothie. I might substitute strawberries for the pineapple. I love strawberry and spinach smoothies. My brain injured son votes for the pear and kale one, though.

I’ve heard a lot of good things about Vitamix! I also never thought you can use kale in a smoothie… really interesting. I’d probably make the kale and pear smoothie since there are a lot of yummy fruits in it.

I would have to go for the Kale and Pear smoothie. I have a genetic heart disease that I am fighting, and this smoothie sounds like it would be right up my alley for the fight. I’m also working on getting hubby on the same page as I am in raw foods. I might be able to sneak in the kale with this smoothie.

Kale & Pear smoothie, definitely
January 8th, 2009 at 10:07 am 7
My father in law has one of these mixers and he uses it for everything. I really wanted one until I saw the price but maybe I’ll just get lucky and win one. I think I’d give the Kale and Pear smoothie a try. It sounds yummy!
January 8th, 2009 at 10:10 am 8
Ooh, I’d love one of these! I’d make Montel’s Green Smoothie because it has fewer ingredients (I’m kinda lazy that way).
January 8th, 2009 at 10:12 am 9
I’m lusting after this blender like nobody’s business. I think that makes me officially a grown up…. you know lusting after small kitchen appliances. ha! I’d go for Monte’s Green Smoothie. I’m intrigued how the lettuce thrown in there would affect the taste. Please let us know!
January 8th, 2009 at 10:16 am 10
Oh my goodness! I would love to win this!
The Kale and Pear Smoothie looks yummy!
My fav fruits are strawberries and bananas, so I know I would be making many of those!
January 8th, 2009 at 10:35 am 11
LET ME WIN PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! I am dying for one of these things. My blender has been on the fritz for months..
I’d make the kale and pear. but I’ m open to anything with spinach, blueberries too.
Can I enter more than once?

I already own a VitaMix, so I’m not writing to enter. But I’m about to go make my standard green smoothie:
3 cups water
2 giant handfuls spinach
2 or 3 Dino kale leaves
2 slices lemon
3 cups mixed frozen fruit (Costco sells a mix of pineapple, strawberry, mango, and papaya)
My husband and I split a blenderful every morning and it’s delish!
leslies last blog post..A wonderful gift
January 8th, 2009 at 10:53 am 13
I have been lusting over this blender after its feature in so many blogs I read! I would love to win this….and if I did I would definitely go for the emerald smoothie. I always have spinach on hand so that would be the perfect choice.
January 8th, 2009 at 11:17 am 14
What a cool blender! I would make Montel’s Green Smoothie – bananas, oranges, and lettuce sounds like a delish shake that even E would like!
January 8th, 2009 at 11:26 am 15
Homemade sun-dried tomato hummus! http://carrotsncake.com/2009/01/homemade-hummus.html

I’ve been wanting one of these blenders. The gym I work at has one, and sometimes I’ll just stand there and watch them in action!
January 8th, 2009 at 12:06 pm 19
Kale and Pear Smoothie! I need some green drink in my life.
January 8th, 2009 at 12:09 pm 20
Only two to choose from?! I would definately go with the Kale and Pear Smoothie, but that might be my pear obsession peaking out ^_^
That blender sounds like an amazing machine. I’d love to try it out! ^_^

January 8th, 2009 at 12:59 pm 22
I so covet the Vita Mix and if I should be oh so lucky as to win one, I would definitely be making the Kale & Pear Green Smoothie! Yum!
January 8th, 2009 at 1:25 pm 23
Liquid greens sound a bit odd to me, so I think I’d start out with Montel’s Green smoothie and move on from there. What a great giveaway!
January 8th, 2009 at 1:27 pm 24
Kale and Pear smoothie would be the one I would make. My friend has this and I am green with envy everyday.
January 8th, 2009 at 2:31 pm 25
Kale and pear … with maybe some pineapple or mango added in for color?
YUM!
Thanks

I would make the Montel’s Green Smoothie. It really looks delicious.
January 8th, 2009 at 2:34 pm 27
I was thinking the Kale & Pear smoothie looks yummy! Better for me than the cherry pie I just had
So I’ll be over in a bit for some healthy food, hehe! What a great giveaway!!
January 8th, 2009 at 3:01 pm 28
Omg how cool is that! I love to make smoothies and I have never thought of adding vegetables…prob cuz mine may not blend them up. But I have been pondering ideas lately of how to get more veggies in Especially for breakfast! I would definately go for the kale and pear smoothie to start and look forward to creating many more yummy green options! I have also been wanting a juicer but it isn’t in the budget right now. I love that it can do so many things even heat up soup! What will they think of next. Please pick me!
Hannah/Pilateshotties last blog post..Thursday is running day!
January 8th, 2009 at 4:42 pm 29
Definitely the Kale & Pear. I think drinking something green would take some getting past the color
But this would be great to own!
January 8th, 2009 at 4:55 pm 30
mmm, the kale and pear smoothie sounds great!
January 8th, 2009 at 5:04 pm 31

What a coincidence… I was just thinking yesterday: “I need one of those super blenders. I would love to make really great green smoothies for my family in the morning.” (It’s true – I was even thinking of green smoothies.) So, I would Montel’s Green Smoothie.
January 8th, 2009 at 7:55 pm 35
I like Montel’s Green SMoothie. Great giveaway. Thanks,
January 8th, 2009 at 8:27 pm 36
I’d go for Montel’s Green Smoothie. My sister has had a vitamix for a long time and swears by it. She has eaten Raw and used the vitamix and lost a lot of weight. I’ve been interested in a vitamix for a long time, but just can’t get past the price, even if it is a fantastic machine!I’m ready to get healthy and lose weight too!
January 8th, 2009 at 10:01 pm 37
Montel’s Green Smoothie. It sounds “fresh and crisp”.
January 8th, 2009 at 10:05 pm 38
What an exciting giveaway!! I would definitely make Montel’s green smoothie. I think I could handle a drink with romaine lettuce if it had the bananas and oranges with it…
January 8th, 2009 at 10:28 pm 39
here I am again. drooling over that thing. And reading how everyone else wants one too!!

Oh boy! I’d make them both but the Montel’s smoothie sounds yummy. I’ve been looking to get one of these for awhile but haven’t given in yet. Winning one would be superb. There are sooooo many uses you could get out of the Vita-Mix that’s why it’s so ingenius. Green smoothies are my favorite! Keeping my fingers crossed. Thanks.

January 9th, 2009 at 12:55 pm 46
Oh, wow, what a cool prize! Those blenders are awesome. If I were to win, I would most definitely make a MONTEL GREEN SMOOTHIE.

I would go for the Montel’s green smoothie, because bananas and oranges sound good together.
January 9th, 2009 at 2:28 pm 48
I will definately make Kale and Pear.
Just received kale from my co-op and didn’t know what to do with it!
January 9th, 2009 at 2:40 pm 49
My best friend loves her vita-mix. My brother-in-law had tongue cancer and can’t eat anything solid. He has been on an all liquid diet for four years. He sure could use a vita-mix.
Anyway, I would try Montel’s green smoothie. I think the romaine lettuce would blend nicely with the banana and orange.

I’d definitely go for the Kale and Pear. It’s below zero most days where I am and it is hard to get in your fruits when all you want is hot chocolate!!
January 9th, 2009 at 3:08 pm 51
At first I was turning up my nose to the sound of green smoothies but the Kale and Pear one sounds interesting so that is the one I would make.
I have heard great things about the Vitamix blender.

i have been lusting after the vita-mix for YEARS now. i always try to win give-aways, but i don’t think i’ve ever wanted to win as much as i do this time!
i think i would probably try montel’s smoothie first because i always have all those ingredients on hand and it sounds YUM. then i’d work my way through all the other recipes!
January 9th, 2009 at 7:23 pm 54
Montel’s Green Smoothie, all the way! I would totally use this on a daily basis for me, and for making baby food!
January 10th, 2009 at 12:16 am 55
i have always wanted one of these! i would make the Emerald Smoothie! thanks.
January 10th, 2009 at 12:26 am 56
Kale and Pear! Yummy.
January 10th, 2009 at 6:59 pm 57
the kale & pear definitely!
January 10th, 2009 at 7:26 pm 58
My beloved blender recently broke down – I really enjoy making smoothies, especially huge meal style ones with frozen fruits and ice.
I’ve never had kale, so I’d have to try the kale and pear, just to mix things up a little! (heh)

I would love to have the Vita-Mix Blender so I could start my day with the Kale and Pear smoothie, not only does it sound delicious but it is packed with vitamins. It is a heart healthy, immune boosting, digestive moving, cancer figthing smoothie! Thanks for the opportunity.
January 11th, 2009 at 11:43 am 63
I was SO excited to see this giveaway today. Parker is fed via a g-tube and this vita mix blender would be PERFECT for making his meals g-tube friendly. I’d LOVE to be able to use fresh ingredients for his tummy.
I’d also love it for myself. I could use the extra hit of nutrition and energy this blender would provide.
Such a great giveaway.
I think Montel’s smoothie would taste great, but my favorite I bet would be the pear and kale.
January 11th, 2009 at 1:50 pm 64
*GASP*
Vitamix, I think I love you. I mean, I haven’t met you yet, but… I think we could really get along.
I think I’d have to ease into it, Kale may be a bit much for the first go. But I think I could drink a cucumber/tomato/cilantro concoction on a daily basis…
Loving your blog…. very inspiring.
January 11th, 2009 at 10:36 pm 65
I’d make Montel’s Green Smoothie! YUM! love your blog!!!
January 12th, 2009 at 1:32 am 66
I actually kind of like Kale so I would pick the Kale and Pear smoothie. I make a lot of fruit smoothies for my children, and my blender is on its last legs!
