I really liked my Vitamix before, now I use it all the time
I’ve made several of the recipes so far, I like them all. My favorite is the Tomato Vinaigrette, this has become a favorite topping for burgers, tacos, vegetables etc. The family history of the Vitamix family and whole food focus of the recipes is great, a few more photos would be nice, but a wealth of information.I had some roasted acorn squash in the freezer, so I substituted it into the “Sassy Sweet Potato Soup” recipe on page 103, added some rosemary and a little curry, then I left out the honey since I’m not a fan of sweet soups, it was incredible, fully of ginger-y goodness!The creamy parsley sauce is like a more flavorful chimmichuri sauce, I keep a squeeze bottle of it in the fridge all the time now, it is great.I really had my doubts about the not-so-cheesy cheese sauce, I’ve made it about eight times now. I’m normally not a fan of “fake cheese” at all, but I love nacho cheese, I just hate how bad it is for you, this tastes great and is healthy, my little girl loves it too. I’ve started adding 1/2 tsp chipotle powder and smoked paprika, recently I’ve been adding some jalapenos, love it, really good and don’t feel terrible about eating it or feeding it to my kids.About nine months ago I started having smoothies for breakfast for health and if I prep them the night before it is time efficient in the morning too, I’ve been very happy with the results, I feel better, lost some weight and look better.Then about six months ago out of the blue my dad had a heart attack, the doctor gave him a new diet which he has been sticking to religiously. After things calmed down a little I started bugging him about trying the smoothies, healthy soups, etc. I finally got him to try it and he has noticed huge changes, he lost close to 20 pounds on top of what he lost from the diet the doctors gave him!!! Both he and my mom keep mentioning how much more energy he has now too!!! He was napping a lot before, even over the phone I can how much more energetic and happy he is. This is all largely because of what I have learned from my Vitamix and this book. You can’t put a price on health and happiness.

Chock-a-block full of great recipes!
I have had my Vitamix for a week and love it. You can’t keep me out of the kitchen! The cookbook that came with my machine is great but I was looking for more gluten-free, egg-free and vegetarian/vegan recipes to fit my dietary restrictions. As I live in Australia, I purchased the Kindle edition first, honestly, because I didn’t want to have to wait for the book in the mail (and to check whether the print edition was worth spending the extra money on).I’ve only had the Kindle edition for a few days and have read it from cover to cover, bookmarking all the recipes I’m going to try in the coming weeks. I’ve already made a few of the recipes and I’ve found they’re adaptable too for changing and substituting ingredients to meet dietary requirements. Occasionally the recipes make suggestions for substituting ingredients too, which is greatly appreciated.Some standout recipes are: Falafel, Quinoa Black Bean Burgers, Mixed Berry Purée, Peach Soy Sherbet and Banana Freeze. There are lots of others I can’t wait to try!This cookbook is packed full of healthy, easy recipes and clear instructions. There’s also an introduction to the Vitamix history and the author’s family which is nice to read.Overall, the author in conjunction with her company’s dietitians, has done a very nice job of compiling lots of healthy, easy, quick and new recipes for Vitamix owners. I’ll be purchasing the print edition too.Thank you.Highly recommended!Note to editor: is the Muhammara (Red Pepper & Walnut Dip) recipe missing walnuts in the ingredient list!?

It took me a while to warm to this book, because the food was so ‘different’. Nonetheless, there’s plenty in here for healthy food ideas. I am now off to make myself an oat milk frappe before the 7am work meeting

Kindleのレシピブックは検索しにくいので、使えるかな?と思っていましたが、レシピ自体の配列もツリー構造になっていて見やすく、複数ページを一挙に閲覧することもできるようになっています。ページを繰って探しまくる必要がなく、買ってよかったと思いました。ただ、バイタミックス本体に今フロクでついてくるレシピブックと結構重複しています。メーカー本体が監修しているのだから当然ですかね!蛇足ですが、英英辞書まで付属していますが、肝心の知りたい単語に訳がありません。「レーズン」が「干したぶどう」、「クッキー」が「スイーツの一種」など、今のふつうの小学生でも知っているのではないでしょうか。内容的にはスープのレシピが良いですね。これから作ってゆきたいです。

J’ai dévoré ce livre et déjà testé plusieurs recettes avec succès. Ok il faut comprendre l’anglais, mais même avec un niveau intermédiaire et un petit outil de traduction, on s’en sort facilement. Il est beaucoup plus complet que le livret offert avec le Vitamix, ils se complètent bien.
