The King of Blenders

I MUST share about the necessary equipment that is used to make protein shakes because it is ESSENTIAL in order to have a perfect consistency. I must of gone through at least 5 blenders before I found one that didn’t crack/break/or just not do it’s job!  I have found 3 ‘wonders’ that will last you (literally) years or they send you a new one free! I listed the main website where they can be found, but you can usually find a deal on them at Kohl’s and other department stores!

Kitchen Aid 5-Speed Blender- This blender has lasted me literally years and it is worth every penny! This was my first item placed on my wedding registry, because I couldn’t imagine my life without it.  The first year I got it, I did cause it to malfunction (totally my fault) and they replaced it no questions asked!  The great thing about this blender?  They come in adorable colors :).

Kitchen Aid Immersion Blender- Great kitchen tool!  You just stick it right in the cup with all the ingredients and blend away! It’s amazing how smooth this little tool can make a shake.  It can literally pulverize ice cubes in seconds, and it’s a lot less expensive than the blender. It is also great to use for cooking, such as soups, veggies, etc.  The best thing about it… easy set up and clean up!

Magic Bullet- This little gadget is great and it really does whip up a delicious creamy drink in seconds, just like promised! The only downfall about this appliance is that it gives you a standard cup size.  I personally like to feel like I’m getting more ‘bang for my buck’….Or should I say a bigger shake! :)

The best purchase I have ever made was my Blendtec blender. That thing is the best kitchen (and probably any other room) appliance! I use it at least once a day… sometimes a lot more. It blends anything. It is pricey though.
