Smoothies:)
Hello beautiful ladies!!
This is a totally 'BC unrelated' post. This morning at about 7.00am our door bell rang. I wasn't expecting anyone at that hour, so when I opened it there was a huge box wrapped in blue plastic, addressed to me!! I unwrapped it, and there was a NUTRI BULLET blender!! Just like the one on the TV.
I have been talking about getting one for ages,and my daughter in Melbourne decided to buy it for me as a surprise!
It is fantastic,and I have made my first smoothie so easily. Much better and quicker than my old blender. This is really going to keep us on the right track, even though we have been doing well anyway. There is a great recipe book with it, and I feel very lucky.
Smoothies are such a simple but effective way of getting all the nutrients we need. It doesn't have to be hard. I hope everyone is doing as well as they can be. Cheers xox Robyn

- My favourite smoothie at the moment is: spinach,blueberries,mango,pineapple,raspberries,tablespoon of goji berries,chia,almonds,oh and I forgot to say,half a banana.I freeze the fruit in little sandwich bags,and then just take one out of the freezer and straight into my nutri bullet.Equally as nice with milk,but with water,it's just like a frappe because the frozen fruit makes it really thick and icy.Yum:) xxxRobyn
Hi everyne, the magic bullet seems to be the way to go forward, especially on those days you don't feel like eating a big meal, but need something nutritious. I have the older version and was wondering if nuts could be pulverised with the newer one and my question has been answered. Thanks Robyn. Results from my ct and bone scan tomorrow. Just had another five days in hospital with diverticulitis so it looks like I might have to have an adjustment made to my chemo as well, which is set down for tomorrow as well. Sue:-)

Hi Robyn
That is great I love my smoothies got an old pocket rocket bought a new blender but burnt out so back to my old faithful
Hugs and Love Karen I love the support you give everyone thankyou
- I bought myself one a few weeks ago and LOVE it!! They are so easy to clean, and you get all the goodness of the skin/pith etc that normal juicing removes! My favourite is spinach leaves, strawberries, blueberries, green apple or pineapple and I use coconut water instead of plain water. I also throw in some chia seeds. If anyone else has a favourite they would like to share I am always looking for new and tasty combinations. Happy blending xx
- I am doing the same.I bought all the extras,cause I figure they last well( Chia,goji etc ) and I am having so much fun experimenting with different things.Cheers Robynxox
- What a great present. I lashed out and bought myself one a couple of weeks ago. It maybe in my head but I do feel it has given my energy levels a bit of a boost and it certainly can't hurt with my health. I am doing the immune boost recipes. Enjoy.
- I'm a trailblazer alright!! Lol . Tonya it's fantastic.Just like it looks on the TV.Its really powerful,SO easy to clean,and it blends pretty much anything.You can throw a handful of nuts in,and there are no grainy bits left.Im so thrilled with it!!Robyn xox
- With beautiful thoughtful loving daughters. Enjoy x
