Thank you for sharing... Your voice reminded me so much of my late grandma I had to listen a couple of times..;()... I worry though if your family member is diabetic about all that fruit but you guys are on the right track ..be well!.. Have an amazing day..;()

My doctor has recommended I purchase one of these. Sure glad you demonstrated it...I just might order one...one of these days.

Hope your hollidays was great folks, I'm back now.  I always enjoy your videos...good southern cooking like I had when visiting Missouri.

Hugs,

Aegan

We got it off of QVC which is a shopping channel on tv. We got it on a payment plan for about 5 or 6 months. Chip is a diabetic on insulin and has had a kidney transplant so we wanted something that could help his blood pressure & sugars by eating more fruits & veggies plus I need to lose weight & I'm hoping it will help me too. The smoothies are good & there are lots of youtube videos about it. I've already used it at least a dozen times and we haven't had it a week. Love the easy clean up.

I too ordered a red one from QVC. I have not received mine yet...I am soo jealous!! I cannot wait to make smoothies and put spinach in them just like you did. I have always heard you dont taste the spinach at all. I am making that soup too!! I saw them making that on qvc and I wanted some all day! ha Thanks for sharing!

[civilwarcat]

I know you will totally enjoy it. I sure do. I was surprised that I didn't taste the spinach in it although I had heard that before. It's an amazing machine.

Wow! You bought one! I'm amazed when they showed it makes soup on QVC. Did you get this wayching "Dining with Dave"? That soup looked great. If I bought one I'd probably use it everyday cuz I love soup!

[civilwarcat]

Actually we ordered it Sat. night and it was here on Tues. Very quick! I love QVC! David did have it on his show the next day though. Did the payment plan which doesn't take a big chunk out of your pocket at one time and it was a $100 less on QVC than on the Vitamix web site.

thanks for the share my friend..5******that friut looks lovely.5*****..@nn

[civilwarcat]

Both things turned out great! I've started making a smoothie every day.

[GMPNY]

Very good!

I use yougurt, Bananna and any other fruit and Ice cubes, what a real treat that is!

[civilwarcat]

I love it because you can get your full recommended servings of fruits & veggies in one or two smoothies a day. You really can't tast the veggies when you put a bunch of fruit in it. I've started making one every time we get up or make a batch the night before like I did last night and put it in the pitcher for the next day. Really does perk you up for the day.

[BurlyBadass]

That thing kicks ass! I would omit the spinach and replace it with a little vanilla ice cream.

[BurlyBadass]

I can't believe you put spinach.

[civilwarcat]

You can't even taste the spinach at all. The fruit takes over the taste.

[BurlyBadass]

@civilwarcat I love spinach, but I have never seen it used like that.

[TheLoserKingdom]

@BurlyBadass You put greens in a smoothie because it is a way to sneak greens into your diet without people knowing. You cannot taste the spinach.
