Blendtec Blender Giveaway – My biggest giveaway ever!! ****CONTEST CLOSED-WINNER ANNOUNCED****
This blog has brought me so much happiness! I have become a better cook and I have met some of the most amazing people who love food and cooking as much as I do. I have also been sent some fantastic products. How cool is that??
I was recently sent the most amazing blender I have EVER used by Blendtec. It is extremely powerful and has so many capabilities. You can make anything from milkshakes, smoothies, soups, sauces, hummus, pasta dough, pizza dough, mayonnaise and you can also grind meat, chop nuts and cheese. I was really excited that they also sent me the Twister Jar attachment which makes ice cream, nut butter, pesto, and pie crust just to name a few things. I’ve made this smoothie and this smoothie so far, which my kids LOVED, and I plan on trying several recipes from the recipe book as soon as possible.
It not only is a powerful blender, it’s simple to use and cleans up easily. It also looks great too. This blender will be kept on my countertop because I plan to use it A LOT.
The generous people at Blendtec are offering my readers their very own Blendtec Blender Classic Wildside, the Twister Jar attachment, and Fresh Blends Recipes Book for a total value of over $595.00!!! You get to choose what color of blender you would like – Black, White, or Red. I chose the black one and it’s a beauty!

Blended, iced coffee!
I love to cook but live in a very small in-law apartment, so my counter/kitchen speace is quite limited. A stand mixture is too big but I use a blender to blend my ingredients for my macaroons, cakes, bread puddings etc. My mother has a thing for white chocolate dulce de leche macaroons, so that’s the first thing I’d use the blender for, blend that yummy almond flour with white chocolate chips and just make the best macaroons for my mom. ^_^

I am thinking some kind of smoothie! I have been dying for that blender!
I make a protein shake every morning and I’m in desperate need of a new blender – this would make my morning so much better!

Wow, over 400 comments, competetion is fierce. I would make ice cream and a smoothie and pesto because I have tons of basil and I could go on and on. And I have to tell you when I make something new, whatever it may be and my hubby asks me where I got the recipe and I tell him it’s from Pam (we know you well around here) he says oh, I know it will be good.

I WANT A BLENDTEC SOOOOO BAD! I wanted one for some time and trying to save the money. I make smoothies most mornings and would love to have blender with power to do seeds and skins of harder fruits & veggies. I do not know what I would make first…I would probably go to the farmers market and buy a ton of veggies/fruit and nuts… come home and make soup, smoothies, hummus and PEANUT BUTTER! I have been dying to make homemade peanut butter instead of ever having to buying it at the store again!

I would make a smoothie – been wanting to try those, but don’t have a good enough blender to make one.
I would love this blender! Now that winter is coming, I will be consuming more frozen fruits and veggies in smoothies and soups. This blender would make those things a breeze! The day you posted this was my birthday, so it would also be fun to get this as a belated present. :).
