The Magic Bullet

So my Magic Bullet just came in the mail!! I am so excited. I have wanted one of these things ever since my sophomore year of college! My roommate & I basically had the infomercial memorized. So this morning after my workout, I decided to give it a whirl (get it - it's a BLENDER! Ha). I made a Strawberry Banana Smoothie. Here are my ingredients:

  • 1 Cup of Ice
  • Splash of orange juice
  • Handful of strawberries
  • 1 Banana

I ended up taking out about 1/4 of the banana & adding more strawberries & orange juice than what is shown in the second picture. I still think it could have been more strawberry-y, so next time I'll put even more! I also like my smoothies pretty thin so I made sure to blend it really well, but that only took about 20 seconds!! SO EASY. And I made it right in the cup I was going to drink out of, so I just washed the blade & that's it! I already know this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship for me & my Magic Bullet :)

**Watch the informercial (here) & just try & tell me you don't want one! The characters are so funny, & it really made me believe I would use it for EVERY SINGLE meal. We shall see!
