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.

Recipe Notes

If you plan on drinking 1 serving and saving the rest, pour the remaining smoothie into ice cube trays and freeze for quick blending on another day. Enjoy!

  2. I really would love to win this blender! Both my husband and I are teachers, who also coach every sport and all through the summer. We also have two teenage children who are in every sport...needless to say, we are really busy, but we firmly believe in eating healthy also, which is harder when you don't have the time to cook and you are always on the go! Having a blender like this would make life easier and it sounds like it is very user friendly, so everyone in the house could learn to use it! Thank you for letting us have an opportunity to win one- that is very kind of you!

  6. I have a Ninja pulse but it wasn't a good purchase. I've burned the motor out doing simple things. I can't afford a better blender of any sort at the moment. So fingers crossed :)
  7. I have a smoothie for breakfast every morning with a crappy cheap blender. I would love an upgrade that doesn't require mostly liquid to get things moving. This would be awesome!
  8. I would be so, so happy to win this blender. I'm a poor college student right now who's struggling between saving money for grad school and travel & eating healthy. It's hard to eat healthy on a tight budget with a busy lifestyle, and blended smoothies would be the perfect tool for me! I love smoothies, but getting a good blender that works well is expensive... and not in my budget for the next few years or so.
  9. I transitioned my family to whole foods/clean eating starting last May. I would love to win this because I make my kids smoothies *every* morning and am quickly wearing out my blender. Thanks!
  10. Blendtecs are awesome! I want one because the blender I use isn't as powerful, but I love making healthy smoothies for my family.
