KitchenAid 5-Speed Blender Give Away!
This contest has ended.

I couldn’t help myself. I saw a video on how the KitchenAid blender beat both the Vitamix and the Blendtec blenders in a test. Considering it is about 1/4 to 1/3rd the price, I just had to get one and put it through it’s paces. So for the next few days, I will be blending and reporting. And on Friday…because I want you all to know how much I appreciate you, I will be giving it away! (Make sure you read the rules below or your entry won’t count.)

To enter, simply leave a comment in the comment section telling me why you are interested in raw food. It can be as simple as one word, or as long as you like. I will pick a winner on Friday with a random number generator and announce who won on Friday. Entries will close at noon on Friday.

So far, I am pretty darn impressed. This is what I am eating for lunch. Right this minute. Slurp!

No fancy food photography today. I was hungry. And too excited to get this posted. Hurry up and enter before I decide to keep this little beauty! If you can’t wait until Friday, you can find one here: KitchenAid 5-Speed Blender
Ginger Peach Strawberry Smoothy
serves 2
- 1 cup frozen peaches
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 1 orange, peeled
- 1 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1-inch piece of ginger
1. Place all ingredients in blender.
2. Blend away.
How did the blender do with this recipe? Great. The only thing I had to do that I wouldn’t have had to do with the Vitamix (because it has a plunger) is stop and push it down once or twice. It blended smoothly….even the entire orange.

I love eating Raw smoothies for breakfast in the morning because it curves my sugar cravings in the afternoon.

I started eating 100% raw about 5 months ago, and feel fantastic – healthy, strong, light! I have transformed my kitchen and love your recipes. Thank you for posting such deliciousness!

I’m not excited about raw foods. Raw foods nourish and strengthen my body mind and spirit. Without them I do not feel whole.

I’m interested in raw because I can just FEEL that my body wants me to eat more raw foods. I get cravings for raw veggies and fruits that cooked foods just can’t fulfill. (I’ve not–yet–gotten to the more complex raw foods recipes….) I know I will never be a 100% raw foodie, but I can tell that my body wants me to eat more than I do!!

Raw Food haiku:
Nature provides it
And we are part of nature –
We’re organic, too!
