WHY I LOVE THIS PRODUCT

This is the one kitchen tool that has dramatically improved my health.

Why? because it’s made healthier food and from-scratch cooking so much more accessible and affordable. Here are just some examples:

• Before: buy an expensive bag of almond flour to make healthy muffins
• After: keep almonds in bulk at home, grind fresh flour in one minute when I need it

• Before: buy store-bought almond milk, which can be watery and contain preservatives
• After: make my own fresh almond milk, which is creamier and tastes far better. Plus, I can flavour it how I want with honey, cinnamon etc.

• Before: make chunky soup in a stockpot, or buy store-made mix with high sodium levels
• After: make chunky soup in a stockpot, and then blend it in minutes for a smooth finish

And that’s just some of the examples, you can see more below.

HOW I USE IT

These are the top ways I use my blender:

• To make fresh nut milk
• To make smoothies
• To make vegetable juice (strain afterwards)
• To grind fresh flour (from almonds, buckwheat, brown rice)
• To blend soups
• To blend batter (pancakes, cake, cookies)
• To make salad dressings
• To make fresh nut butter
• To make ice-cream

WHY YOU SHOULD USE THIS BLENDER

• It’s extremely powerful and can pretty much blend anything i.e. you don’t have to worry about chunky smoothies
• Heat resistant so it’s perfect for blending hot soups or drinks
• Dishwasher safe and easy to clean
• Save money on expensive smoothies and juices
• Reduce dependency on packaged food items that contain additives, or are more expensive e.g. almond milk, salad dressings, almond flour, soup mixes
• Doesn’t take up as much counter space as the other major brand, Vitamix (if you’re comparison shopping!)
• 8-year warranty (um, amazing)
