Do I have to use a vitamix? Do you think a handheld stick blender would work?

[CanarsieBK]

@LiveGreenMom You don't have to use a Vitamix, but I just love mine. I'm sure the handheld would work just as well.

This looks really tasty. I'm gonna have to try it. I grew some broccoli over winter and it's just about time to harvest them.

@ASFx2600 Nice. Great timing.
