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. OMG! This is an amazing giveaway. I would love to be able to make green smoothies for my boys that don't have chunks in them. I am crossing my fingers for this giveaway!!!
  2. I would like to win because there are so many things that I've been wanting to make but can't because I don't have a blender. My cheap blender just broke last week but I had already been wanting a blendtec anyway. I'd love to be able to make my own almond milk and smoothies that are actually smooth in texture among other things.
  3. I would love to win this blender because I use my parents' blender quite often but do not have my own! It would be nice to have when I move into my own place in a couple years!
  4. I have the oldest blender in the world that doesn't work well at all! Super loud, super dull! I want a blender that will make it easy for me to make all those delicious smoothies you post on your blog! I've never been able to make one yet because I dread my blender so much! :(
  5. I would love a super powerful blender to help make hummus, almond butter and smoothies even easier. We at this point do not make homemade almond milk because the process just takes too long! This blender would be a game changer. :)
  6. We have been looking for a good blender for a while. Unfortunately most are far too expensive for our budget. We have been using the Ninja which did well for about a year and now the blades have gotten dull, even with trying to sharpen them, they never have been the same. We purchased a cheap Brentwood blender to make smoothies with and the plastic gear on the bottom is completely stripped. So saying this Blendtec Blender would be a godsend to us, is an understatement lol. Thank you for the chance to enter and thank you for all you amazing recipes. We love them!
  7. Would soooo love to win this!! I'm venturing into lots of new eating habits at home and slowly incorporating my kids -- smoothies would be a fantastic way to get them eating more whole foods in a fun way!
  8. I would love to win this so I can use for smoothies and for things like hummus unfortunately my old osterizer cannot handle much more than a smoothie and I just do not want to get a separate food processor :o)
  9. I'd love to win because I do not have a blender and I'd love to try out all the wonderful fruit smoothies and to start eat healthy.
  10. I want to win this so badly! I cannot afford a nice blender and I'd really love to try the fruit smoothies that you had on your blog. They look so colorful and wonderful.
  11. This has been on my wish list for soooo long. I would LOVE to win this blender. I make my own almond butter in a mini chopper and it takes forever plus one of these days I'm going to just burn out the motor. But this....oh man, almond butter written all over it!
  12. This is a great blender and would be a great addition to my kitchen. I love to cook and love the great recipes you share with us...
