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’ve been eating an 80% raw diet for the past two months. It is amazing how much better I feel. My skin, my hair, my body all feel soooo much better and lighter. I have been doing it with just a stick blender for smoothies and its bowl attachment for blending soups. I’d love to have good blender to vary the possibilities.

In order to improve the health of my loved ones I completely changed our diet by eliminating meat and dairy products from our diet. I started juicing and cooking plant based/whole grain raw meals from your website. In a month my husband was off 6 out of 7 medications and my mother is in a better health I ever seen her in. “Let thy food be thy medicine…” Thank you for enriching our life with your recipes!

After dealining with breast cancer at the age of 39, I just wanted to stay healthy to see my little boys grow up. Did some researches, read numerous cancer survivor stories and found out that raw food diet may be the key to a better health. Swithed to raw food diet and absolutely love it. Love how feel now. Love the way my skin looks like. I’m full of Hope…
