Blender Recipe Cookbook: Healthy Smoothie, Soup and Dessert Recipes for your HIgh Speed Blender

The book contains a large number of recipes that include medjool dates. Two dates, a typical recipe number, contain 30 grams of sugar out of 46 grams of dates. For someone who tries to keep carbs, and especially sugar down, these are not recipes I can use often.That said, the book has two redeeming values. The smoothy I tried (with dates, of course), tasted pretty good. And it gave me general ideas on how to make my own smoothies with ingredients that are available.I encourage the author to work on a recipe book majoring on savory blends that contain little or no sugar, ie, without dates.

After finally getting fed up with seeing a larger version of myself in the mirror, I went for a little hunt in my cupboards to find the blender that I'd bought late last year, but had hardly used. I just so happened to have been browsing Amazon at the time and found this little gem. While it's not the most in-depth recipe book out there, the amount of recipes it includes is just right for me. It covers a nice range of smoothies, soups, and desserts for that quick fix. It also helps that the recipes I've tried so far are pretty darn yummy, and fairly easy to put together. My present favorites have to be the 'blueberry pie, green spa and ruby raspberry smoothies' . Though, I have many more to experiment with. So, these might change.I quite liked the 'spicy tomatillo soup' as well. For the odd cheat days… I found the ginger peach frozen yoghurt and mango chill pops both delis. Having some guests over soon, so will put more of these to the test with them. I'm pretty sure they'll love them.

Took a quick look and happy with wide variety of recipes and easy everyday ingredients to use. Going to check out authors website also.

Very small book. Good recipes and ideas.

I was surprised that many of the recipes started out by cooking on the stove and then adding to blender. I was looking for a more blender-friendly recipe book.

Love our Vitamix and am always looking for new recipes. Also am a big fan of 'healthier' desserts too. The broccoli cheddar soup is awesome and love that you can make it in blender and the soup actually 'heats' up. That makes a great meal with a quick and easy clean-up.

Love this helpful book. I had gotten a little bored with my regular smoothies. This book is full of great recipes with great ideas for new flavors and new ingredients. I especially liked the soups!! Thanks.

simple to understand and new ideas to try

I was disappointed in the amount of recipes, also not enough drink suggestions.

Disappointed with book. In black and white, quite a few typing errors - area good recipies

to many posh soups wanted more basic

Very useful for finding out what goes with what in the blender.

rubbish American book.
