Fruits and Veggies Can Be Fun?

I wanted to tell you guys about the NutriBullet. For anyone that has the MagicBullet just think that x 100. It is SO super powered...the blade is incredible. Let's just say this is NOT your average blender! As the website claims, it truly can shred the toughest of materials. It comes with one tall cup, two smaller ones, 2 blades, a number of lids, and the motorized base.


You can essentially put anything (safe) you want in the NutriBullet (yes, even nuts and seeds!) as long as you have enough liquid to help emulsify your creation. It is great since you don't lose anything from the fruits and veggies you add (think fibre and nutrients in peels). Unlike juicers, every edible bit of your fruits and veggies can be used. There are some things are NOT safe to put in...for example, apple seeds (they contain cyanide). The NutriBullet comes with a booklet telling you what is and is not safe to blend. 


It is super fun to come up with different recipes to blend. I try and include celery in everything I make. I truly despise celery normally but blending it has made it bearable and occasionally even tasty! After a workout I love adding some protein to my smoothies as well. 

One of my favourite recipes goes as follows:
1/2 peach
1/2 apple
1/2 banana
3 frozen strawberries
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
almond-coconut milk
water 

Not only can you make juices and smoothies, but you can also use the NutriBullet to make dips and other healthy snacks. 

The juice in the video contains mint leaves, cucumber, celery, apple, and blueberries.
