slo’s WEDNESDAY 5/24 poll - Nutribullet/Small Blender

[slo]

Do you have a small blender, like a Nutribullet?
If yes, how often do you use it?
Do you use it for shakes/ smoothies or something else?
(multiple choice)

*If you have any good smoothie recipes please post them for others to try - thank yo


For Me…..I love my NutriBullet to make my protein shake after I workout. I use my Nutribullet about 3-4 times a week. I also use it at Christmas time to finely chop up pecans for my Whiskey Balls and Amaretto Balls. I have no smoothie recipes because I only make my protein shake - ice, protein powder and skim milk.

There is one in my house I’ve never used it I try not to drink shakes as I can’t have most fruits and ice cream is so delicious and fatting I avoid getting into that habit as it would be bad as I wouldn’t stop!

 

[LoveSpringsteen]

We have that type of blender, but I haven’t used it in years. I used to make the kids smoothies with frozen fruit, vanilla yogurt and a little milk.

 

[Kitty 34]

I don't use blenders anymore.

 

[TippyThomas]

I use mine almost daily for smoothies.

 

[Wood Nymph]

I used to make fruit smoothies every morning using a blender that had a spout at the bottom. I did that for years before bullet blenders came out.

 

[MamaMermaid]

We don't have a little blender - just a normal sized one.

 

[Meriweather]

I used to have 2 small blenders.....didn't use them. I think DD took one and the other went to Goodwill.
I do make smoothies 2 or 3 times a week.....but use a full size Ninja blender. I usually make them for DH and myself for breakfast

 

[Karin1984]

Use it occasionally to make smoothies, soups and sauces. Sometimes to chop.

 

[CynBeth]

We don’t really use a blender.

 

[Dan Murphy]

Just a 'traditional' sized Oster blender here. Smoothies every so often.

 

[Schneewittchen37]

I don't have a nutribullet/small blender. I have a big old Osterizer blender and an itty bity food processor. The Oster only comes out for homemade frozen cocktails and we haven't done that in a while. The food processor is basically retired as well. I haven't needed to make homemade baby food in about 10 years. Maybe I dig it out every few months for homemade salsas.....

We have a NutriBullet; DD uses it a couple of times a week to make smoothies/shakes for breakfast. She LOVES it, but she's always wanted one, being as when she was a kid the NutriBullet ad was on TV all the time- she even listed it on her registry at Target when they were getting married. I think that's kinda funny, that DD's "dream" appliance is a NutriBullet!

 

[Disneylover99]

We have a Magic Bullet. Haven’t used it in years though.
We have a Vita-Mix we use regularly now.

 

[Moliphino]

I had one in college that I used to use for smoothies on occasion. I don't have one now.

 

[soccerdad72]

We have a NutriBullet - we go through waves, one month, we'll make smoothies every couple days. Other times, we'll go a couple months without making anything.

 

[ronandannette]

Nope. We’re not smoothie or protein shake people so I’ve never seen any use for one. I also avoid most single-purpose kitchen gadgets due to space constraints.

 

[CdnCarrie]

We use to have a Magic Bullet and it broke. Didn't have one for about 6-7 years and just replaced it about 3 months ago. Been drinking smoothies lately - and probably will for breakfast in the summer.
I throw in fruit, ice, almond milk and protein powder.

 

[Minnesota!]

I have one and love it. Biggest uses are smoothies, protein shakes, protein dip for my veggies, and salsa in the summer. So versatile and so quick!

 

[BlueStarryHat]

Don't have one. We have an immersion blender that I use to cream soups and such. I don't make smoothies, really. I'm thinking now; don't think in all my 55 years I have ever had one.
