Thumbs up Magic Bullet Blender

I watched the infomercials for this blender so many times and thought how amazing it was so decided to purchase one prior to surgery. It is so easy to use (just a couple of pushes), clean, and store. I began using it last week to puree soup. I've been mixing my CIB in a plastic bottle and shaking - what was I thinking!?! This morning I added the ingredients, poured them in the Magic Bullet, and two pushes later I had the creamiest chocolate Carnation Instant Breakfast drink! I make up 16oz at a time and factoring in the mix and non-fat powdered milk the blender wouldn't hold quite all of it at once; minor inconvenience. But it tastes so much better, none of the gritty powdered milk pieces.

I seldom used my regular blender so when it broke I never replaced it. This little gadget is terrific! My daughter has used it to make salsa (it is so easy!). This was a great investment that I know I will use!

I love my MB too... I bought it prior to my pre-op diet, and the protein shakes were amazing! Added a bit of crushed ice, and it was almost like a milk shake! My hubby was in the hospital at the time, and I just toted it with me... so small and easy to use anywhere!

I've blended my salsa so there are no "bits" for my post-op diet... and have made some smoothies.

It's been a great TOOL to help me on my way!
