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!

First thing I would make after this week…a Margaretta!
Very, very thick smoothies. Most blenders I’ve tried can’t handle them and just spin in an air pocket formed at the bottom. Thick shakes, too!
I don’t own a blender (yes, I can’t believe it either), but if I did I would definitely start making smoothies!
I would make my first ever green smoothie!!!!!
Followed very closely with the recipes for Cheesecake Factory Thai Lettuce Wrap sauces. 🙂

I always try and make sauces in my food processor and it’s constantly overflowing. If I won, I’d start off by making my favorite red pepper sauce!
I have a great enchilada sauce I would love to try with it. But I think I would use it everyday to make smoothies!
I would use the Blendtec to make my daily smoothie!
I would love to make a frozen fruit smoothie. Right now my blender can’t handle frozen fruit, it starts to heat up!
Definitely a green smoothie! Right now I’m loving them with bananas, frozen mangos, frozen blueberries, coconut milk, kefir, baby spinach, spirulina, and peanut butter. Yum!

I SHOULD say I would make a green smoothie. That would be the healthy choice. But I’d probably make a milkshake. But then I’d make hummus to balance out the shake so it’s all even in the end right?

My 11-year-old won’t eat mashed potatoes because he hates lumps. I’d blend him the smoothest mashed potatoes on the planet!!
Banana Ice Cream was my first thought and then I realized tomorrow is the first day of fall … and some Tomatillo Soup sounded very yummy!
SALSA!!
Wow! What an amazing giveaway! I am currently looking for a new blender and I would be sooo thrilled to get THIS blender! The first thing I would make would be a baked potato soup and I am also really excited to grind meat with it:)

I haven’t made mayo in a long time. What better way to break in my new blender. Nothing wrong with a positive attitude, right?
Wow—looks great! My husband is a huge smoothie fan so first up would probably be a strawberry banana smoothie. 🙂

I think I would try a chocolate milkshake if I won this blender. It has been a long time since I have had one and I think this blender would do a great job.
My parents have a blender like this, and it is great!! They don’t use it for much other than drinks, though. I would use it for tons of things!! The first thing I’d make using the Blendtec blender would probably be fruit leather…followed by a quick wash so I could make a marinade for a tri-tip going on the grill…followed by another quick wash before starting on a cheesecake…and then another wash so I could whip up some margaritas……so many possibilities!!
Love your fabulous blog, Pam!!
Cheers,
Erika
Hmm…probably pumpkin puree. I have a small blender, which doesn’t hold much, so it takes a while to ever get the amount I need for a recipe, so this would probably come in handy at the moment or really whenever.
I have a toss up as to what would be the first thing that I would make in my Blendtec. I would either make my favorite Yellow Tomato Gapacho with Cilantro Oil and Avocado, or Cream of Leek Soup (vegan). The latter is a new recipe I have been waiting to try, and it will probably be how I choose to break in my Blendtec.
