NutriBullet!

A couple of months ago I got a Nutri Bullet . This appliance has changed my life! The Nutri Bullet is an extremely high speed blender that literally liquefies the food that you put in it!


I can put five or six raw fruits and vegetables in the cup, blend for 60 seconds, drink the delicious smoothie, and clean the cup in less than five minutes.

I share my smoothie with Little Monkey. She LOVES them! For her, I add infant rice cereal so that I can feed it to her with a spoon. She will pick at foods that she has to chew and wait until she gets her smoothie to really eat.

The high speed and special blades of the Nutri Bullet break down the cell walls of the food, releasing the essential nutrients in the food. This means that we are getting the most out of the food we eat.

A friend of mine asked if I thought the Nutri Bullet would be good for making baby food. I honestly believe it would make the very best, nutritious baby food available. Cooking food removes most of the nutrients in the food. The usual way to make baby food, so that it is soft enough for the baby to swallow, is to cook it and mash it. With the Nutri Bullet you can use raw foods that baby will easily swallow. Always remember when starting a baby on solids to do only one food at a time and watch for allergic reactions. You can mix foods later when you know for sure that your baby can handle them.

Last night's smoothie was:

Spinach
A Plum
Avocado
Tbsp Chia Seeds
1/4 cup Aloe Vera Juice

Happy Eating!
