Treated myself to a new blender.

I've not much in at the moment but hoping to buy some yummy ingredients to try it out.

What are your favourite recipes, it's mainly meant for smoothies/juices but I'm hoping to blend (cooled) soups and savoury sauces too and...

...as it's a Friday night I've been debating the possibility of alcoholic smoothies in my future?

I'm not a big drinker but I do like a nice drink on occasion and thought this would be a fun new thing to try

SO hit me with your recipes!

Shameless bump!

Maybe posted at a time people didn't wanna talk recipes. Hoping this is a better time

Ohh thanks for replying I was being overwhelmed by tumbleweed! Grin

I forgot to mention I'm veggie and those recipes are perfect for me

I'd forgotten about pesto and that's reminded me I can make dips now too!

Shopping for potential ingredients, never tried chia or flax seeds before but I know I like sunflower and pumpkin seeds are they similar taste?

Also ordered frozen spinach will that be ok to use uncooked or will I need to heat first?

A blender is so useful for a vegetarian - we get through a lot of nut butter and humous so I often make my own. I also use it for cheesecakes and crumble toppings.
I’m not a big fan of juices and smoothies so I can’t help about the spinach.
