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 be honored to win such an item. My husband and I have just started a family and have been eating at home and trying to stay eating as clean as we can for our little baby girl. It's been a trial in making almost everything from scratch but also a joy. And having a handy small kitchen appliance so I wouldn't have to do everything by hand would be awesome and greatly appreciated. Thanks for giving away something so amazing!
  2. I soooo need a blender. My Magic Bullet only does so much. Making more and more things from scratch. Would love to try juicing also.
  3. Would I love to win one! This blender can do everything- nut butters, blended soups, smoothies, sauces. And it is durable, so the motor won't burn out like cheap imitations.
  4. Having just moved to Canada from Australia, winning the Blendtec would be the best thing for me and my family. I see all the recipes you post...smoothies, nut butters, granola ..... and so many need blenders I have to add them to my favourites and wait until we can get a good blender!

  8. First of all, I love your blog! :) Honestly, I had never heard of BlendTec until now. Sure I have heard of vitamix and Ninja and I know what they both can do, but this brand sounds better, easy to use and quieter. Why do I want to win? So I can make my own almond/cashew butters and experiment with food. I love food and your recipes. :) This is an awesome giveaway! Keep up the good work! Thank you!
  9. I'd love to win this to make my daily routines easier since everyone in my family loves home-made salads (coleslaw, the Korean carrot salad, Polish pickled beets salad and many more) and a Blendtec would be perfect for chopping up all those veggies!
  10. I would love to be a winner so I to can make all the yummiy smoothies you make. :) Plus it would definitely help lower hubbys cholesterol numbers and weight.
  11. I have wanted the Blendtec for so long. Due to a recent health scare my husband experienced I have now transitioned him to the vegetarian life that I have been living for so long. We eat clean, locally grown, mostly organic and predominantly vegetarian. I am now making everything from scratch - smoothies, soups, baking, etc. I also work in medical fitness industry and very oftemn cook for my clients. This would save me so much time and effort. I would be so appreciative. I love your blog and recipies!!!!
