Raspberry Coconut Smoothie

It’s giveaway time again.  I know many of my recipes require a blender, so I wanted to be able to give you an opportunity to win one.  I contacted Blendtec and they gave me a Blendtec blender to review and another to give away.  This blender is awesome.  I especially love how wide the pitcher is.  Makes for very easy cleaning.  I whipped up this smoothie in no time at all.  In fact, there are set modes on the blender so you can just press a button and walk away.  Great for all us moms out there who are trying to keep up with the kids as we cook.

Not only have I made this smoothie with it, but I have also used it to grind oats into flour, and make soup.  It handled every job beautifully.  The twister jar is great because it can tackle the smaller jobs like hummus and almond butter.

  1. I would LOVE a Blendtec! I've wanted one for 2 years now. I've started drinking green smoothies every morning for breakfast, and I've burned out several blenders already. I know I need the power of the Blendtec. I also want to try experimenting with nut butters, nut milks, soups, etc.
  2. Would love to win! I not only make green smoothies every morning, but also would love to grind my own wheat and non-GMO corn, make mt own peanut butter and sunflower butter, not t o mention coconut butter and milk!
  3. Our stainless steel blender went MIA during our move from the Midwest to Oregon. We have friends who own a Blendtec and others who have another competitor product. All of the RAVE reviews come from the flexibility and diversity of the Blendtec! I would love to own one......as I make smoothies and protein shakes daily for my family.
  4. I would love to win the Blendtec because I would use it ALL the time. I have the same blender we got as a wedding gift 10 years ago and I don't have a food processor. It sounds like this could be the product for me! p.s. I enjoy your blog! Great ideas for healthy eating!

  7. Me and my hubby would LOVE a new blender! I already got rid of our old one because it just couldn't keep up with blending anything but we've been waiting for a good deal on a blendtec or a vitamix because their sooo expensive! Will be keeping my fingers crossed lol :D
  8. I would love this blender. Have been trying to have a smoothie everyday now for i think just over 6 months so a great blender like this would be a welcomed addition to my kitchen. Love your facebook page and website and the fact that your contest is open to Canadian residents WHOOPEEEEE
  9. Hello! I have been visiting and reading your blog for a few weeks now. I thoroughly enjoy your recipes and informative postings. One of the most difficult things about nutrition is finding the information you are searching for and the recipes. I took a nutrition class in college and really loved the idea of whole foods. Since taking the class, I constantly work towards eating whole foods and watching what is in everything I purchase. I am a college student and this blender would be a great way to continue down the path of a healthy, whole, and nutritious life style. It would also be useful in the kitchen when preparing meals since I do not own a blender! Thank you for the opportunity to win this blender! ~Alex
  10. I would love to win this blender, (who wouldn't) so I can eat and drink healthier, and make smoothies. I already have a juicer and this would be the icing on the cake.
  11. I would be so grateful to have a blender like this one! I often make protein smoothies to take to school, but the blender I have now is the one my family has had since forever so it doesn't have nearly the amount of power it once did. It sure takes a lot more effort on my part than it should to blend up a smoothie haha.
  12. I've been waiting for my old Oster blender to die... it wouldn't do green smoothies well anyway. Hoping to win the Blendtec blender!
  13. I have wanted a blender ever since I started working at a local farm. They grow so many nutritional foods that would make delicious smoothies. I am sure I could drink a lot more than I could sit down and eat! Thank you for this opportunity!! Lizzy : )
  14. So excited to have a chance to win this. I am doing Trim healthy Mama eating plan and it would be a HUGE blessing to own one of these to help prepare my foods on my journey to better health and to treat my family. I have 6 kids in the house that would love the treats I could make with it. Thank you!!!
  15. I have been loving all of the awesome recipes! I am currently going to school for Exercise and Wellness while trying to be a good mother to a 4 month old :) Nutrition is so important to me! However, I have found it difficult with everything to find the time I need to really put into it. A Blendtec would be such a helpful tool! Thanks for all the inspiration!
