    Great Christmas gift! The recipe book that comes with it is a good way to start. As far as making soups is concerned, we use it to puree the soup and then cook on the stove. Although the high speed blades can heat liquids, leaving it on for 7 minutes is very noisy and not as efficient as the stove.

    Here is my basic smoothie:

    1 cup Milk (Dairy, Almond or Soy)
    3 tbsp Greek Style yogurt
    1 Banana
    1/2 cup frozen Blueberries
    3 Frozen Strawberries
    1 medium Carrot or Beet
    2 tbsp Hemp Seeds or Flax Seeds
    1 Scoop protein powder.
