I’ve really been enjoying working with my new Blendtec Designer Series Blender, as it is a cut above the blenders that I’ve used before and is good for a lot more than just mixing up fruit smoothies. The people at Blendtec were kind enough to provide an extra Blendtec Blender for me to giveaway to one lucky reader, so now is your chance to put your entry in for a chance to win!
Of course, I wish that I could give all of you new blenders, but since that’s not in the cards right now, you’ll have to leave a comment on this post stating your favorite use for a blender. Is it making blended coffee drinks? Pureed soups? Homemade peanut butter? Blender waffles? The winner of the contest will win one Designer Series Blender furnished by Blendtec. For an extra entry into the contest, you can sign up for the Blendtec recipe newsletter, which will deliver great (and sometimes surprising) blender recipes straight to your inbox.
The contest ends Sunday night at midnight (a.k.a. 12:01am on 05/06/2013) and one winner will be randomly selected from the entries. Don’t forget to fill in your e-mail on the comment form (it will not be made public), as that is how I will contact the winner, and good luck!

Alison
May 2, 2013Wow, excellent giveaway, thanks for doing it! We currently only have a stick blender, and use it for soups, simple smoothies, and dips/hummus. I would love to have a real blender, so that we could try nut butters or green smoothies (ie, with spinach or other greens).

Kelsey
May 2, 2013I haven’t had a powerful enough blender to make all the things I want to, but of the things I’ve tried, I’d say blended coffee drinks are my favorite of the moment (says the pregnant person who’s abstaining from, and thus craving, coffee!).
Julie
May 2, 2013I often make a suprisingly delicious vegan gingerbread muffin recipe from Cookie Madness. It uses silken tofu and my usually fussy kids love it!

Kim Daley
May 2, 2013I use mine mostly for salsa…if it worked better, I would probably use it for much more!!!
juli

Saranya
May 2, 2013Ooh, it would either have to be a puréed soup in the winter or a kale and fruit breakfast smoothie in the summer!
Janyne
May 2, 2013I would love to have a decent blender! It would open up a lot of possibilities! Right now I have a barely passable one.
Lauren

Michelle Henry
May 2, 2013Even though I know these blenders can do amazing things, I think it would mostly be my smoothie maker 🙂 Although, I do have a blender pizza dough recipe I have wanted to try but it would kill my current blender for sure… Love a chance to try it in one of these!!!

May 2, 2013morning smoothies!
Mary Beth Hunt

Rosie
May 2, 2013I love making green smoothies!
Kristina Beaver
May 2, 2013I love making smoothies with LOTS of ice. It takes a QUALITY blender to blend a “smoothie” and not an “icy”!
John

Denise Flippen
May 2, 2013I have always wanted a blender so I can make my granddaughter her favorite smothies

Waffles
May 2, 2013ERSPERERGURS Soup!
Blenders are the the only way to get Asparagus Soup to be the proper level of smooth. Same thing goes for making refried beans for me.
Eva @ Eva Bakes
May 2, 2013Smoothies! Mine isn’t powerful enough to break up everything in one push of a button though, so this would be awesome to win.
Alaina
May 2, 2013Margaritas. 🙂
Helene Trapper
May 2, 2013While I have been using an immersion blender for some time now, sometimes you just need a full blender. I would definitely use it for my breakfast smoothies, and I would adventure out to make homemade peanut (and other nut butters). This giveaway is great!
