The Dependable Blender for Smoothies

You do NOT need a fancy schmancy blender to make a good smoothie! I used something similar to THIS blender for years before finally upgrading to my Vitamix. I believe that the dependable blender for smoothies is the one that you have.

All of that being said, if you find yourself making a lot of smoothies and using your blender on a regular basis then I surely recommend an upgrade. I have used THIS Vitamix for the past 6 years and completely love it. I anticipate it lasting me for a particularly long time which makes the investment entirely worth it!

Here are my blender recommendations from amazon based on your budget:

Budget Blenders:

Oster 16 speed Blender
Kitchenaid 5 speed
Ninja Personal Blender

Mid Range Blenders:

SharkNinja
Breville Blender
Blendtec Old-school Original

High end Blenders:

Vitamix Professional Grade
Blendtec Old-school Blender
Vitamix Ascent Series

I also have a single serve blender similar to THIS one and LOVE it. I use it often when I don’t want to dirty my big Vitamix. I find it especially helpful when I’m blending small quantities for sauces and small smoothies.

How to Make a Smoothie

I’m a BIG fan of smoothie recipes that are STRAIGHTFORWARD and simple. To me, half the point of a smoothie is to have a savory and nutritious meal/ snack that can be made in 5 minutes TOPS.

So making a healthy smoothie is straightforward around here. Step 1: gather your ingredients. Step 2: add those ingredients to your blender. Step 3: BLEND until creamy, adding a little extra liquid if needed to get your blender going. Step 4: Pour and ENJOY!

It’s completely that unfussy to make a smoothie which is why A REGULAR HERE having them on a daily basis.

If you’re brand new to smoothies: I suggest following a few recipes first. Once you’ve made a good handful of them, you can start genuinely experimenting with new flavor combos and ratios of ingredients. Have fun with it!
