The hubby and I are thinking of buying ourselves the Nutri Ninja for Christmas.....who has one? Pros? Cons? What are your favorite recipes to get you through the day?

    I do, I do!! And I LOVE it. I have killed 2 other blenders in the past 8 months with my morning smoothie recipe, but the Ninja is a hoss.

    Really, I only have my morning breakfast smoothie from it, but happy to share the recipe. It carries me through to 12 or 12:30 every day easy. I love it and my day is incomplete without it.
    ½ cup frozen blueberries
    1 cup frozen strawberries
    3 tblsp Greek plain non-fat yogurt
    2 tblsp of PB2
    1tblsp cocoa
    1 cup (unsweetened) Vanilla Almond Milk
    1 tblsp ground Chia Seeds
    1 to 2 slices of avocado
    (Sometimes I throw in a packet of truvia or splenda)

    Oh! Another good one though is:
    3 cups fresh baby spinach (not packed cups, just cups)
    1 cup raspberries – fresh or frozen (I like frozen better)
    1 banana
    4-6 oz water
    (Only make this if you're drinking the whole thing at home and can brush teeth afterward. It's... very dark.)

    Have had my Ninja set for several years.Finally got around to using a smaller cup for my smoothies.Works perfectly,wouldn't be without the ninja.

    My smoothies are made with frozen banana,frozen strawberries,yogurt & ice cubes.they are smooth for sure.
    Gave my food processer away.It takes 3-4 pulses to cut up a full container of carrots,celery etc for my soup & I make soup just about every week.
    Very easy way to make egg salad with eggs,any veg you like......add mayo & seasoning....done.Same goes for for,nuts,chia seeds etc.
    As you see,the Ninja is a great machine & you don't need the most $$$ one.Mine works as good as new.

    Ive had a regular ninja for 2 years, use it almost every day. Never seen anything so powerful. I make a lot of smoothies, whipped cauliflower and spinach pattys, etc. Buy one, you probably wont regret it !

    True Story. I accidently destroyed my nutribullet 600, then 2 days later got the nutrininja 900.

    I have the Ninja mega kitchen system and love, love, love it! The key is to get one with a lot of watts (1500 for the one I have) they are all different. Well worth the money. I use mine 3 times a day!

    I got one as a Christmas present. My hubby said he knows I am into "that healthy stuff"! I am experimenting with it now.
