I made this tropical fruit sorbet in 30 seconds.
I made this tropical fruit sorbet in 30 seconds.

Many times I’ve bypassed the Costco demos (oh, they’re demonstrating another blender – can’t be bothered) as I’m making my way towards the food section to get what I need and make my way out of there as quickly as possible.

They recently managed to grab my attention while announcing making sorbet in 30 seconds.  What?? A healthy & delicious sorbet born out of frozen fruit, some crushed ice & a bit of agave syrup for sweetener.  I was sold!  I didn’t even care that you can make soups, dressings and sauces in 5 minutes or less.  This machine makes it all so easy and clean up is so simple.  The secret is the variable speed dial which allows you to control the blades and therefore provides versatility at various speeds for a multitude of recipes.  It’s actually a high performance blender. It comes with a cookbook for getting started but you can do your own thing from there once you get used to it.  You can blend, dry & wet chop, make frozen treats, heat, grind, knead, emulsity and purée – even make whole grain flour (not that I will ever – but never say never).vitamix2

Soup – we made mushroom & cauliflower and cabbage.

It has replaced my juicer, blender & food processor.  It’s like the netflix of kitchen appliances for convenience.
