This is basically a cheaper version of the magic bullet. I LOVE it. The motor quit on my magic bullet (which cost twice the price) so I bought this instead. This one has lasted longer & blends better. I LOVE it. Perfect for smoothies & protein shakes. I use it every day.

That's where I got mine on sale last year!

Great to hear this recommendation - it's on sale at Target starting tomorrow and I'm going to buy it now

I loved the Magic Bullet, but it didn't hold up to daily protein shakes. I've replaced it twice and now I've just given up on it. I'm going to try this brand and see how it does!

I use mine every single day too. The price really varies on it so price shop and watch for sales.

I'll order one soon. Thanks for the tip, I just couldn't warm up to the Magic Bullet.

Mock Gravy
No extra calories in this quick idea using ingredients already in your meal. When you've finished cooking potatoes with your roast beef, pork tenderloin, chicken or turkey, remove all of the vegetables from the drippings. Return some potatoes to the drippings & whizz them up with a hand blender. The consistency becomes just like gravy & doesn't add unnecessary flour/cornstarch etc calories. Just plain good food that you were already going to eat!

MORE INFORMATION:
If you don't have a hand blender, a regular counter top blender will do just fine.
