New Vitamix!!

We just bought a Vitamix!!!!

5200 Series with the dry blender (for grinding flour) along with some freebies (cutting boards, spatulas and cooking books)


This bad ass can do everything under the sun, save pressing oils from nuts/seeds for homemade, healthy oils (still working on that one). At the demonstration, the woman made a fruit smoothie (orange, pineapple, apple, carrots, spinach, cantaloupe with seeds, blueberries and grapes), a healthy ice cream (ice, cocoa powder, organic sugar, avocado, coconut milk and...spinach!), a delicious tortilla soup (at this point, Ian and I were talking excitedly about whether or not we wanted to buy this beast, so I can't quite remember what went into it), a second fruit drink for newcomers (ginger, lemon, spinach, kale, blueberries and a bunch of other things) and finished it off with a "Green Tea" (spinach, ginger, lemon and agave syrup heated up to a nice toasty temp). This thing is amazing!!

We'll come out with cool recipes with it soon. We cannot wait to try it out!
