I had been wanting to get a better blender lately so I could make smoothies, in particular detox smoothies. I picked up this gem and was surprised to find tips on how to choose a blender. Perfect! I was in the dark and needed some help, but there are so many blenders and criteria that I just wasn't sure where to start, so just knowing that there was something other than a countertop blender was helpful.Ms. Harper also talks about the different additions that you can put in your smoothie and their benefits, such as vinegar, chia seeds, psyllium husk powder, and so on. The smoothies are divided into three sections based on calories, so it was easy to choose something that fit the caloric intake that I was looking for. I tried a few and my favorite was the peanut butter and Ovaltine smoothie, because I'm such a chocolate addict. To make things even easier for people watching their weight or are concerned about their daily intake of vitamins, fats, etc., each recipe also has the nutritional information listed! That was fantastic!I am really enjoying this book so far and I can't wait to try out some more smoothie recipes!
