Vitamix Blending Tips:
Some of you have asked me what settings I use on my blender.
Vitamix blenders can look intimidating, but they are so easy to use!
Start by placing all of the ingredients into the blender, followed by the lid, and plunger.
I usually start off on variable 5 as I jam all of the ingredients down with the plunger.
Once the ingredients have all been pushed to the bottom, I like to bring the variable speed up to 7 or 8 until it starts moving on it’s own without the plunger.
Once the ingredients start blending without the help of the trusty Vitamix plunger, I hit the “HIGH” switch and let it run until it blends super smooth and even!
Serving Size: Makes 2 - 1 cup servings
