Vitamix, the Super Champion Blender

So, you’re diving into the wonderful world of whole food plant-based eating, but the kitchen prep game is totally new to you? No worries, you’re not alone! A common question that pops up is about the must-have small appliances for your plant-based kitchen. Enter the Vitamix—a fan-favorite and often touted as the ultimate blender. But is it really the super champion of blenders?

Quality Craftsmanship

Absolutely, Vitamix blenders come with a hefty price tag, but here’s the deal—they’re built like tanks. With a warranty that lasts seven years, these powerhouse machines can actually serve you for decades. I mean it, there’s pretty much nothing the Vitamix can’t tackle swiftly and efficiently. Smoothies, soups, and even homemade peanut butter? Check, check, and check. Plus, as a cherry on top, Vitamix blenders are proudly made in America! 🇺🇸

In the world of blenders, the Vitamix truly stands out for its durability and performance. It’s an investment in your health and your culinary adventures, making it a beloved staple in plant-based kitchens everywhere.

I’ve had my Vitamix since 2012, and let me tell you, it’s been a game-changer! I use it daily—sometimes even multiple times a day—and it’s still going strong. This blender is truly a workhorse in my plant-based kitchen! 💪🌱

The Numerous Benefits:

For years, I have made my own enchilada sauce from scratch, using a variety of dried red chilis. Pre-Vitamix, I had to run the resulting sauce through layers of cheesecloth, lining a fine-mesh sieve. Now, thanks to Vitamix, that is a tiresome, messy step that I can eliminate.

In addition, I didn’t like peanut butter until I started making my own in the Vitamix. But, oh my gosh, nothing can compare to fresh peanut butter from this machine. No added salt, sugar, oil, or preservatives. Just the goodness of peanuts. There’s no oil slick floating on top of the finished product and it lasts a while in the fridge.

And margaritas? Yes, please. Quickly whip a few up; fresh citrus, tequila, and ice are all that are required. Bring out those chilled salt-rimmed glasses and you have the beginnings of a party.

Imagine the convenience of being able to create frozen desserts in the same machine that can also make hot soups! There’s a Broccoli-Cheese soup recipe in their book that is easily modified for a whole food plant-based lifestyle.

For over a decade, I have fully enjoyed my Vitamix blender and it is still going strong!  A lesser quality machine wouldn’t have lasted so long with the frequency it is used.

Where to Purchase Your Vitamix

Okay, friends, I’ve shared just a few of my favorite uses for my Vitamix blender. And for those of you who gasped at the price, I get it—I really do. I had to save up for a while to buy mine, too.

But here’s the good news! If you’re a QVC regular, you know you can often snag a Vitamix at a lower price and sometimes even spread out the cost with up to six monthly payments, depending on the deal of the day.

And Amazon lovers, you’re in luck! You can find several Vitamix models at fantastic Prime prices. Congratulations if you’ve already scored one! Some might be refurbished, but Vitamix is renowned for its meticulous refurbishing process, ensuring top-notch quality. Plus, Costco frequently stocks a basic model at a reasonable price.

In short, there are countless reasons why the Vitamix is the ultimate kitchen workhorse and, in my humble opinion, the champion of all blenders. Its versatility in tackling various tasks has truly earned it this title.
