We got a Vitamix

Does anyone else out there have one? What are your favorite recipes? Does yours heat? Can you use a regular oatmeal recipe in it? I'm having a lot of fun playing with it.

We love ours...have had it 10 years or so. We mostly do veggie juice in it. Fresh or frozen veggies plus a little fruit to make it taste good.

I bought one new in box at yard sale many years ago! It's the only blender I've ever owned. Great product.

I love mine. I make Hummus and I have made some soups but my grandchildren love lemonade slushies. I buy lemonade and add ice cubes, blend and serve. My vitamix is my pride and joy!

We bought one a few months ago and just love it! Worth every penny it cost! I use it to make fruit and veggie smoothies for breakfast. I do NOT like, NEVER have liked soups! But after trying a couple of the recipes in the Vitamix cookbook, I'm now a soup lover! It's amazing to me to have a great fresh soup ready in less than 10 minutes!
