Veggie Puree Anyone?

Magic Bullet = Summer Smoothies

i would make pasta sauce. lots of sauce

Oh so many things! For the baby I’d use it to make baby food. We bought baby food for the first, and now everyone and their mother is talking about making our own, but all we have is a gazillion-year-old blender that wouldn’t do so well. So baby food. Then for the older one, purees for the Sneaky Chef cookbook I have. She’s a great eater, but like you say, it’s always good to get more in there. For myself, smoothies. They’re my favorite thing ever. Well, that and ice cream… Thanks! I’ve always wanted a Magic Bullet!!! Erica, gumbi1313 at msn dot com

I can see using it for smoothies a lot. It would be super good for baby food, it we wern’t a little past that phase, but we will be there again sooner or later. It look snice because there aren’t a lot of parts and its not huge to get in the way.

We would mostly use it for smoothies - but I’m sure we’d discover plenty more uses for it, too!

I am currently making homemade baby food in our blender. It does a good job, but this would be soo much easier!

Since the only thing I have is a stick blender, which isn’t all that great for making smoothies and things, I’d probably make smoothies since they are yummy…and I’d probably check out Jessica Seinfeld’s book just so I could find other things to puree.

SMOOTHIES! Some days (more than I care to admit…) that’s all my son will eat. Luckily he doesn’t mind when I throw pureed veggies in with the fruit

I would love to win one to make my own babyfood. Thanks and will have to check out the book as well.

Well, I’d have to go and snag a copy of the Deceptively Delicious cookbook if I won. In the meantime, I’m sure the hubby would whip up several smoothies!

I would make smoothies, and vegetable purees, and sauce, and…

My 4-month old son will be starting on solid foods in another month and the magic bullet would come in handy to make his baby food.

Oh, yay! I have two toddlers, including one very finicky eater, so I would load up on lots of fresh veggie purees to sneak into the pasta-and-cheese dishes they love so much!

I would love to try all the recipes in the book. I’ve had the book since the Oprah appearance and since I don’t have a suitable blender I haven’t tried ANY of the recipes. I think the brownies will be the first recipe!

I have a picky eater I’d love to slip some extra nutrition into; and smoothies would be really fun during our hot, hot summers! Thanks for the chance!

I’d puree up a tomato storm. I love, love, love tomato soup and with summer here, my tastes turn to something a little colder - I bet this little tool makes Gazpacho a cinch!

This would be great for my picky eater who is 2 and will not even try something new for me! I’ve been needing one of these!

My in-laws have one, and love it! It is perfect for salsa and other dips. We use it at the cabin all the time. I really want one for home!!!

Oh goodness!! I’ve always wanted one of these…I’ve seen the infomercial about a thousand times!! (Did I really admit that?) I have the Jessica Seinfield book, and LOVE it! I put everything in my blender, it would be nice to have something smaller, so I don’t have to lug out the bulky blender all the time. My favorite thing to make is Yogurt pops. I puree some frozen fruit and vanilla yogurt…pop it in the freezer…it’s a great treat!

I cook with a lot of fresh produce and fruit, so I would use the Magic Bullet for LOTS of things.

Of course, after I finish feeding the kids their stealth veggies and put them to bed, I’d be sure to grab a few strawberries, limes, mangos, ice, and rum and mix up a little treat for the hubby and me!!!!!

ohh my, something chocolate! maybe chocolate with veggies too. maybe a chocolate mocha smoothie with veggies in it. hhmmm, I don’t know if I can wait till June 6th!

Homemade baby food! This would be much handier than my current messy blender method.

We just love smoothies around here! But I might like to use it as a baby gift for a girlfriend who’s into making her own baby food…

I have 2 picky eater kids and would like to try to hide lots of VEGGIES!!

I often need to chop nuts or chocolate to make cookies. I bet this would be great for that.

broccoli, broccoli and more broccoli!

fruit smoothies and food for the baby!

I’d blend up veggies for a homemade “v8″ juice.

I SO need one of those!

I would use it to make baby food and smoothies!

I’d love it to make baby food for my 6 month old. I have a chopper that I use, now but it’s not the best. LOL

OH and you should try the other cookbook, that she supposedly stole her ideas from, I Lie it a lot better.

Ooooh, I’d love to use it for my veggies too. And fruits! I use a juicer, but then all that stuff that gets left over? Such a waste!

I make a smoothie everyday with all sorts of healthy stuff thrown in, this would sure make life easier!!

I bet I could make some killer hummus with that!

I would love one of these! I bought my parents one for Xmas 2 years ago and they still haven’t used it:(

I would use it for smoothies, guacamole, omelets…and more!

I have always made my own baby food and with #4 on the way, I’ll be making baby food again a few months down the road. This would be so much easier than my hand grinder!

Wow, this is a great idea. Please enter me in the contest- I would love to win this!

I love my Deceptive cookbook, so I will be making veggie purees! And fresh fruit smoothies too!

I’d blend up my split peas for some soup!

PB and banana smoothies!

Smoothies! I love them for an afternoon snack in the hot weather.

Fruit for smoothies!

Smoothies most definitely! But I bet it would also be awesome for scrambled eggs or omelets!! Sign me up!!

I’d use it to create fruit coulis (don’t know how to make that plural) to make dessert presentations look fancy….like at restaurants. :0) A blender is too big for such a small job!

Thanks!

I have wanted a Magic Bullet for a long time - just couldn’t really afford it! I would love to make salsas, guacamole, smoothies, etc. I think this would be such a versatile appliance to have! Thanks for offering this!

I’d like to try to whip up a matcha green tea smoothie!

I would make berry smoothies for breakfast. Thanks!

I would love to make smoothies! My old blender is broken!

Lots and lots of homemade baby food from organic veggies and fruits. That’s my goal with this new little one!

I just ordered the cookbook the other day, and am awaiting its arrival! I’ve heard some awesome stuff about it! (and MIL offered us a Magic Bullet, but we have to pick it up..she’s in CO, we’re in GA….).

I’d make lots of things from the book, plus baby food for friends (since I don’t have one eating it right now), margaritas, salsa and guacamole!

Thanks!

I’d use it for smoothies and to try out some of the “sneaky” recipes that I keep hearing about! I just joined a produce co-op so it would be great to get even more use out of all the fresh fruit and veggies.

baby mush! and mousse!

I’d use it to make homemade baby food for our newest baby, fill our picky 4 year old with nutritious goodness, and our one year old would love smoothies.
It would definitely give me an opportunity to cook more often, and healthier meals… I don’t suppose it can teach me how to cook, can it? Ah well.

Oh my gosh. Best giveaway ever. I’ve got a 14 month old who’s recently decided that he won’t eat any vegetables besides carrots and green beans so having this would help me out a ton. I have Jessica Seinfield’s book but I haven’t really tested it out yet so I could finally break it in.

I SO want one of these! I had a hard time believing it would do what it said it would (I’ve been infomercial-burned before!), so I didn’t give in. But now I REALLY want one!!
There are SO many things I’d blend with it! But I think the first thing I’d try is chocolate mousse! It looks so yummy on the infomercial!!

I just had a baby girl, and in just a couple of months she’ll be starting solids. So thats what I would use it for. To make her baby food!!

laura_licious101(at)hotmail(dot)com

I’d make smoothies for the little guy for sure!

I would use the magic bullet to puree foods for that lovely cookbook also!!

We have liked everything I’ve made, even the beet pancakes! ( I was gaging at them smell from the beets while I was pureeing them, but they did taste good!)

i would make tons of smoothies a favorite in our household. i would make a garlic sauce that my husband loves but never gets anymore beacause our 1 yr old broke our blender and so much more!

Oh we would love it for baby food, I use a mill this would be easier!

Home-made DQ blizzards! Yummy.

Oooh! I have one of these and used it a TON with my son making baby food. I’ve been wanting to give one to my mom to make her daily breakfast smoothies so this is perfect! SUPER easy clean-up.

Mmm fruit smoothies! They are my favorite summer treat, and they can be difficult to make in my crappy blender.

Thanks for a great giveaway!

I also got the Jessica Seinfeld cookbook for Christmas and haven’t made many of the recipes because our food processor is SO loud it scares the toddlers! I would love to use the magic bullet to try more of the deceptively delicious recipes and to blend up baby food for the youngest!

I am a huge fan of the pureed vegetable, and the sneaking it in to every imaginable recipe. I have Jessica’s book, and use the recipes all the time. This Magic Bullet has my name written ALL OVER IT.

We’re out of baby food stage (for now) but it would make Smoothie Nights simpler and more fun for all of us! And I think I could sneak some veggies into my sauces and brownies

I was sneaking Cauliflower into my kids smoothies for a long time, they caught me and I was kinda like “oh, um I thought you liked it. I have since moved on to flax seed

That contraption looks so cool. I bought Jessica’s book for a good friend of mine and she swears by it. I, however, have not yet purchased it for myself.

Smoothies, dips, chicken salad and grind coffee beans. Thank you, I have wanted to try the Magic Bullet forever.

Oooo - smoothies! It’s fresh fruit time, and my kids LOVE smoothies!

I like to try making vegetable juices and maybe fruit juices too.

All about making my own baby food for my daughter with one of these babies! …mmm, and how about a little homemade pesto for mom and dad

I would use it for baby food and for yummy smoothies!

WOW! I have been wanting one of these forever!
I think I would make lots of smoothies and lots of homemade sauces.

I’d blend up strawberries, orange juice, yogurt and bananas to make a smoothy. mmmm

cool! I know that we would blend fruit for smoothies and make a lot of veggie dip:)

I would love to win this. I’ve tried the vegetable puree thing, and I really like the idea. It would be even better if I had an easy way to do it.

My sister-in-law gave me “Deceptively Delicious” for Christmas! I LOVE IT!!!

My husband wouldn’t eat a vegetable to save his (or my)life… but he does now! I’ve been putting cauliflower puree in his mashed potatoes ever since Christmas! And now, my kids love spaghetti with squash more than regular spaghetti… what they don’t know won’t hurt them!

That’s what I’d do with it. I hate dragging out the gigantic food processor and trying to finagle it into the already stuffed dishwasher once I use it.

Fruit smoothies and chocolate mousse for sure.

slushies (for kids in the summer), fresh salsa, fresh fruit smoothies, frozen fruit smoothies (in the winter), veggie puree (I want to try that in brownies)

MMM…I’d make me some yummy salsa and guacamole!

I saw the magic bullet infomercials while recovering in the hospital after my son was born 3 1/2 yrs ago and have wanted one ever since!

Some yogurt smoothies for the kiddo!

Would love to make some Jessica Seinfeld’s deceptive puree’s!! I am practically banging my head against the wall to get my kiddos to eat veggies!!!

we love smoothies and picante sauce too! I’ve been wanting one of these for a long time

strawberry smoothies!!

I would totally blend stuff up and make smoothies! Especially with summer right around the corner….

Count me in!

I’d make banana strawberry smoothies!

Sounds good. We eat our vegetables “outright”, but I’d make salsa with it.

i would DIE if i got a Magic Bullet. i actually sit and watch those commercials with my husband.

i’ve got a baby coming, so i’d make baby food. Also, after the baby comes, i’m going to be consuming a lot of health shakes to try to lose the weight. You should pick me!

Green smoothies!

I tried doing all of the pureed stuff but it took so long to clean everything up. I would love to be able to puree the cauliflower and carrots I like to sneak into recipes (yes, I borrowed Jessica’s book from the library.) I also mix my own yogurt for my daughters and it would be great to be able to add fresh pureed strawberries or blueberries instead of the applesauce I use now.

Ooooooh, I’d definitely use it for baby food - sweet potatoes, avocados, grinding grains. And smoothies!

I just bought Jessica’s book at the elementary school’s book fair. I can’t wait to read it and try some recipes. LOTS of recipes. Including breads, and I think I saw a macaroni dish when Jessica was on Oprah. And I wonder if the bullet could help me make guacomole? I LOVE guacamole.

Lots and lots of baby food!

This would be a great help when making salsa.

We’re making baby food here, so we would get LOTS of use from one…we’ve been wanting to buy it anyway!

I would puree veggies, since my 3 year old won’t touch a veggie with a 10 foot pole. I would mix them into what we are already eating without him knowing it!

I’d make smoothies for my daughter. Pina Coladas for me, and tons of other goodies. Thanks so much for the opportunity.

mistchlo[at]hughes[dot]net

How about trying to make some ice cream with veggies? I tried it a few times. It tasted so-o-o good… You would never believe there is cabbage, salary, carrots, and all kinds of vegetables in it! I wonder if you could do the same with a Magic Bullet. Would be nice…

I would definitely puree carrots and sneak them into my daughter’s food because I can’t get her to touch them! I would also love to puree baby food for our next little one

Hi, I have so wanted to win one of these for my husband! He really enjoys cooking and having new wonderful gadgets and appliances. This would make a wonderful Father’s Day gift for him! I would ask him to make me a batch of “Roasted Red Pepper Hummus!”
My 90 year old dad still plants a vegetable garden!
My sister and I help him and we usually get some great homegrown vegetable. Please enter me in your delightful drawing. Thanks very much! Cindi

I’d love this! I sneak some green veggies into everything my daughter eats, b/c right now she’s into hating every green food right now.

Smoothies would be the first thing I’d make.

I would try fruit for smoothies and then maybe grate up some veggies or cheese for a pizza.

I used my old magic bullet for anything and everything before it conked out. I would LOVE a new one. My kids loved making themselves smoothies.

I would blend up milk, icecream, blueberries and peaches for a delicious drink. thank you for the contest

A healthy fruit smoothie

I’m not a very good example for my granddaughter, because I’m not much of a vegetable eater either (except for potatoes), so I guess I’d use it for lots of vegetables.

I would blend up every type of fruit smoothy you can think of. I encourage my kiddos to make smoothies for snacks by having yogurt and frozen fruit always on hand.

I would make great smoothies with all the wonderful tropical fruits and yogurt for the added calcium.

Would absolutely use this to puree natural foods for Lily. Oh the possibilities with fruit!

My kids are 6, 9 & 12. So, not baby food They would love smoothies! I’m sure we could come up with some great things to make.

I would make my favorite chocolate banana smoothies!

I’d make baby food for our almost-five-month old. And I would also sneak some veggies into our dinners for my husband. He calls himself a ‘vegetable rights activist’ and won’t eat anything green, orange, red, or yellow (unless it’s frozen corn).

I would use it to make strawberry smoothies and chocolate mousse!

smoothies and more smoothies great contest ! Thanx !

I have wanted a Magic Bullet for so long! I’ve watched the infomercial every time it comes on TV - LOL I would probably make smoothies with the Bullet.

i am so sure this machine would make me skinny in my dreams

Strawberry daquiris

Oh there are too many things to make with it. I couldn’t choose just one to mention. My oldest boy, on the other hand, could probably name dozens off the top of his head. He watched the infomercial so many times he can recite it. He’s so silly.

Baby Food - but i’d love to know all the different items used to make up tasty baby purees. I’ve never done it before.
Cayce
I’ll probably try a few drink recipes too, to get me through the baby food thing and all.

fruit and vegetable juices!!!

I’ve never seen an advertisement for the Magic Bullet before. (We don’t watch commercials with our DVR.) Looks like it would be nice for small jobs, like a smoothie or milk shake for two…a batch of fresh salsa…parmesan cheese for spagetti etc.

I can’t see it replacing my stick blender for pureeing soup or replacing my food processor for shredding cheddar and making pie crusts though. Know what I mean?

Still, for certain jobs, I can see it’s purpose.

Lotsa lotsa pasta sauce.

I would puree some vegetables and fruit for my 7 month old who is just beginning to eat food and then mix up some guacamole for myself. When I was pregnant with her, I craved guacamole.

I would use it to make smoothies and healthy shakes for all the kids at daycare

i would use it to make eerything.

Ice and rootbeer

I would make the most fantastic smoothies and the greatest salad dressings.

babyfood, smoothies, salsa, fruit juice, veggie juice….so much!!

Ooh I would make smoothies with strawberries, bananas, and peaches and yogurt!

baby food!

I would use it for everything from baby food to green smoothies. Thanks so much for the opportunity.

I would make smoothies, sauces and of course sneek in those veggies! My kids have gone on a veggie strike here of late. I’m sure I would find tons of other things to use it for too. Thanks for another great giveaway!!

Baby food in a jar is SO expensive! I would whip up my own!

My wife will take those diet smoothy things, and I will make SALSA!

Smoothies for my kids.

I would make shakes and cauliflower puree. I use my big blender everyday, but the Magic Bullet would be easier for cleanup.

Definitely strawberry smoothies!!!

smoothies!!!

smoothies

I’d have to try it to see if it does a good job on the ingredients for my grandmother’s meat sauce. When I do it by hand, it tends to be chunky…

My little ones love for me to make milk shakes all of the time, but instead of using the “food processor” we have (the only thing we have; don’t even own a blender) I’d use the bullet to make these delightful treats for them.

Count me in. I’d love to win.

salsa, of course!

smoothies would be good to make

I’d make lots of healthy smoothies filled with a variety of fruits and veggies. They’re not only good for you but will help you lose weight too!

I would LOVE one of these! (My college-aged brother has one and loves his.) I would use mine to make double-duty purees - some for the baby and some to sneak into my toddler (and husband’s) meals. We could all use a little extra veggie. Oh, and a few fruity drinks for the mama to enjoy out on the deck after the kids are in bed! Thanks! beezerly (at) yahoo dot com

I would make fresh creamy vegetable soups…

I’d love to make some smoothies - I’ve heard this thing actually works!

Salad dressings! We eat salads all the time.

I would make so many things! Smoothies for me, homemade baby food when the time comes, dips, etc. My husband and I have seen the infomercial for the Magic Bullet so many times it is ridiculous. We keep saying we’re going to get one, but with baby on the way there never seems to be enough money in the budget. If I don’t win, I’ll definitely be putting it on my birthday wishlist this year!

I have always wanted one of these! I would use it for smoothies…and chopping nuts, onions, etc. Making salsa sounds great, too!

Thanks!
Jenn

Drinks for my friends!
