“Transform Whole Foods Into Fun Foods In Minutes
With The Vitamix, The Best Blender Out There.
You’ll Be Excited And Motivated To Stick To Your Healthy Diet, Eat Less Junk, And Fit Into Those Jeans Again.”






Best Blender ReviewHi, I'm Sassy.

I accidentally stumbled upon the most amazing blender years ago, and would love to tell you about it.

People are always asking me to share the secret to my success as a long-term vegan and lover of whole foods.

The answer?

A fantastic and powerful blender sits right on my kitchen counter top and is used on a daily basis.





"That's crazy, Sassy. A blender?
The key to success on a vegan diet?"


Please allow me to take just a few minutes of your precious time to share an important blender review. This miracle machine is called a Vitamix -- discover why I feel it's the best blender out there, and how I use it in my own kitchen.

If you're like many people today, you've decided to remove or reduce the amount of dairy in your diet. You have your own reasons for this decision - perhaps you are…

  • vegan;
  • trying to lose weight;
  • lactose intolerant;
  • recovering from a major illness or disease;
  • or wanting to remove cholesterol from your diet to avoid sickness and disease in later years;

But it isn't always super easy to stick to your decision to go dairy-free.

Why?

Well, your food may seem boring, you might find that you miss the consistency and flavors of those dairy-based foods, or your family may feel they're missing the fun flavors they're used to.

I feel your pain!

  • You want your dairy-free diet to work for you, not against you, so you can embrace your desire to do away with dairy-based meals;
  • You want to find a way to save money and time in the kitchen as you prepare meals that excite your taste buds (and those of your loved ones);
  • You want to create delicious dishes that are filled with the nutrients your body needs so you eat less, lose weight, and feel and look amazing;
  • and last but not least, you want to feel that sense of accomplishment that can only come when you stay true to your word and stick to your healthy diet for a lifetime.



Dairy-Free Challenges...

In 1994, I shifted my focus from burgers, greasy fries and chocolate milkshakes to vegetable-, bean-, and grain-based dishes. My reasons for this change were due to my desire to go vegan.

Of course, you don't have to be a vegan like me to find success with your dairy-free diet.

But something interesting happens to most people (myself included!) when they decide to remove the dairy, most notably cheese, from their diet:

Firstly, you try your hardest to find a replacement for your ol' love, dairy cheese. This usually involves various dairy-free cheeses, such as soy cheese, rice cheese or almond cheese.

There are just a few challenges with these faux cheeses:

  • Most dairy-free cheeses taste gross;
  • Those that taste like traditional dairy cheese actually contain "casein" which is a milk protein and therefore not dairy-free;
  • Dairy-free cheeses are usually stuffed to the gills with fat, additives, preservatives, and sodium - not the healthiest food;
  • When you find a dairy-free cheese you like, you tend to go overboard and use it much more than you should for your good health.

But guess what I've discovered?

It's not necessarily the cheese that you love,
it's simply the comforting creaminess.

So what you need are not faux cheeses to fill the place of your dairy cheese.

What you REALLY need is a way to replace the comforting creaminess you find in your favorite cheesy dish in a way that is:

  • actually good for you;
  • loaded with healthy ingredients;
  • not going to add inches to your waistline, but in fact, might actually help you to lose weight.

For example, if you want a dairy-free pizza with cheese, you can order (or make) a pizza with dairy-free cheese.

Sounds simple enough.

But the challenge is that most dairy-free cheeses don't taste very good, or they aren't actually dairy-free (contains casein), or they're fattening!

Vegan Pizza
When the pizza mood strikes in our home, I head straight to my kitchen to whip up my own cheesy sauce that's delicious and comforting and everything you could want a pizza to be.







I have found these dairy-free sauces to be THE KEY to a successful dairy-free diet. In fact, I wrote a book (Get Sauced With Sass) about how to make your own dairy-free sauces from scratch using healthy ingredients.

And it's all been made possible with…

My beloved Vitamix, the best blender around.


Not Your Average Blender...

Best Blender


Jeff and I purchased our Vitamix blender back in 1997 after watching a demonstration of its many uses at a Health Fair in Las Vegas.

Since we were fairly new to dairy-free eating at the time, we weren't exactly sure how important this little appliance would be to our success. Nor did we realize that we had just found the best blender we possibly could have -- without even trying!

But years later, we're still using the Vitamix nearly every single day - it's STILL going strong after thousands of uses. It's truly the best blender available on the market today.

So, you may be thinking, what's so amazing and special about a BLENDER?

This is NOT your average blender.

Take a peek at these Food Feats videos to see some of the amazing things the Vitamix can do for you.


The Key To Dairy-Free Happiness...

Over the years, Jeff and I have enjoyed dairy-free meals that we absolutely love.

Vegan CheeseAnd the KEY to these meals is the creation of homemade creamy and delicious dairy-free sauces, dips and dressings made with healthy ingredients like nuts, seeds, beans and whole grains.

But if you've ever tried to use a regular blender with ingredients like these, you were likely not happy with the end result.




A regular blender just doesn't have the power these ingredients need to be transformed into super creamy sauces, dips and dressings. You need the strongest blender available.


The Vitamix is the best blender for the job because it has such an incredible range of motor speeds (11mph to 240 mph). You can grind those tough ingredients into smooth and delectable sauce-like creations easily.

(For instance, the creamy sauce in the photo above was made with cashews filled with healthy fats you need. The pizza slice was covered with a delicious cheesy white sauce made with calcium- and fiber-rich white beans. Don't these sauces look appetizing? They are!)

Smooth sauces mean delicious results that will make you excited about cooking again. Whoo-hoo!

In fact, you'll actually want to eat at home more often. Imagine how much healthier you'll be if you reduce the number of times you eat unhealthy and fattening restaurant foods, and replace them with foods which are good for you.

Vegan Weight Loss




And can you say a superbly easy weight loss?

You'll be able to fit into those jeans again! :O)

(Happy dance!)










Add creamy sauces, dips, and dressings to your diet. You'll be completely amazed at how easy it is to stick to your dairy-free guns.

But this is not the only reason to own a Vitamix...


Dairy-Free Ice Creams and Shakes...

There you are, minding your own business and suddenly it strikes you - the need for a bowl of ice cream or a thick and creamy shake. You cannot sit still until you answer the call of dessert!

So you head to your freezer (or the store) to pick up a pint of your favorite non-dairy ice cream and scarf it down in no time at all.

But then what happens?

Usually, guilt sets in. "Darn it, why did I cave in and eat that?"

You can almost FEEL the fat settling into your hips, thighs and buttocks. And you also know that this will mean an extra 30 minutes added to your workout routine.

Plus you'll likely notice a negative change to your complexion. Yuck!

Damn the ice cream temptations!

There is absolutely no need to put yourself through this pain and agony.

Instead, you can put ingredients such as non-dairy milk and fruit, along with ice, into your Vitamix, the best blender out there, and within 30 seconds you will have your very own additive- and preservative-free (and even soy-free, if desired) ice cream treats.

Vegan Chocolate ShakeOne of my personal favorites is made with cashews, dates, cocoa, vanilla (and more natural ingredients), a little ice and voila (!), a creamy, thick and deeeelicious chocolate shake - chock full of HEALTHY FATS your body needs.

These homemade ice cream concoctions not only help you to stay away from the unhealthy pre-packaged stuff, but because they're made with HEALTHY INGREDIENTS, eating these treats can actually make you look and feel better, and give you a more radiant complexion.

Talk about a healthy eating plan!


You'll be a success with your dairy-free diet and stay the course to feeling a sense of accomplishment.

That's the kind of dessert I want to eat, how about you?


Unlock The Nutrients In Seeds And Grains...

How To Grind Flax SeedsIf you're striving to eat healthy, you've discovered the importance of seeds. But swallowing down whole seeds isn't doing much good because they'll move right through you and straight into your toilet.

You need to unlock the nutrients that are encased behind the outer wall.

"So what?" you say, "I'll just buy my seeds, like flax, pre-ground."

I'll bet you also you buy your grains (such as oats and wheat) pre-ground in the form of flour?

BIG MISTAKE.

Why?


Because it's super duper healthy to grind your grains and seeds just before eating.

When you break open that outer wall, the nutrients are fresh and available. Beautiful!

But those once-precious nutrients begin deteriorating in a very short time, and soon you're left with a sad pile of ground-up seeds and grains that are simply not offering you the utmost in nutrition.

Why take up any room in your tummy eating foods which do not offer you the nutrients your body needs?

Instead, you can use the best blender available, the Vitamix, to grind your nuts and seeds just before you eat them.

The Vitamix offers an additional container (called a Dry Container), which has a special blade that is made specifically to grind seeds and grains to a perfect powder, time and time again.

Which, by the way, brings up a great point. How long do small grinders last, 2 years, 3 tops? Then they conk out and you have to toss it into a landfill and buy a new one. Such a waste.

The Vitamix is the best blender because it's so reliable. For years and years and years. It will likely outlast every other piece of kitchen equipment you have.


Fiber-Filled Juices...

You probably know that eating an apple is more healthful than simply drinking the juice from the apple.

Why?

When you eat an apple, the fiber remains intact. However, when you juice an apple, the fiber is taken away and you're left with juice which is packed with sugars - sugars which can overwhelm your body processes and cause a fluctuation in your blood sugar.

This can make you tired and can actually cause weight gain!

Vegan Weight Gain

Weight gain from apple juice?

What is this world coming to?









And I don't even have to mention this point to those with blood sugar challenges, who turn their back on fruit juices for this very specific reason.

Fiber is the key to keeping your blood sugar under control.

The Vitamix is the best blender for the job because it processes fruits and veggies into juices and smoothies (and even applesauce) in just 60 seconds. Fiber ensures slower digestion, so your blood sugar will be more even - no more ups and downs!

And best of all, you'll pack your body with the healthful nutrients which fruits and veggies - 2 of the major food groups that you need - supply. You'll feel better, gain more energy and feel great.


Cook Your Food Right In The Container...

Vegan Cream of Cauliflower SoupWhen you make soup, you can put RAW VEGGIES right into the container, turn your Vitamix on the highest setting and actually cook and heat your soup right in the Vitamix blending container.

How cool is that?

And your raw veggie soup will be packed with amazing nutrients.

A regular blender simply is not up to this task.


And there's no need to dirty a pot that will just have to be cleaned later. It's a great time saver, getting you out of the kitchen in record time so you can spend more time doing what you love.


A Blender That Cleans Itself...

One of the coolest features of the Vitamix is that it's self cleaning.

Fill it with 4-5 cups of hot tap water, add a dash of liquid dish detergent, set the Vitamix on its highest setting, and in 30 seconds your container is ready to be rinsed and drip dried.

Speaking from experience, I can say it's SO helpful for your Vitamix to clean itself in the background while you finish cleaning the rest of your kitchen. You'll be in and out of the kitchen faster so you can continue with your day - imagine how much more you can get accomplished. Or perhaps you can spend this time with your loved ones.

Are you sensing a theme here?


Blending Power and Strength!

These are two of the top reasons you need a Vitamix in your kitchen.

In fact, once it resides on your kitchen countertop, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it.

It is truly the best blender you will ever find.

This all-in-one magic machine is such a workhorse, and it takes up very little room on your kitchen countertop giving you more room to work your cooking magic. This is important to me because I have a small kitchen. I need every bit of space I can get.

Best Blender For Vegans
Most companies offer a warranty, but if you look closely at the fine print, you'll find something that goes like this: "...warranty does not cover the following, which may be supplied with this product: parts, containers, fittings, blades, lids, agitators, etc."


Of course, you probably know by now that Vitamix offers MUCH MORE.

They guarantee that your Vitamix machine (for normal household use) will perform like new for a full seven years from the date of purchase-or they will fix or repair it for FREE.

7 YEARS!

I find that amazing.

But you will likely NEVER have to take advantage of this warranty because they make such a faaaantastic product. Truly! You will be completely blown away at how well this machine is made. It's mind boggling.
