I bought my Ninja about a month ago and I LOVE it. The only thing I have made with it is my shakes and a really good chicken salad in the Ninja chopper. Anyone have a good one???

Chicken salad 3 servings: total calories/ serving 175

9oz chicken
1 cup of mixed peppers...I like green, yellow, and orange
1/2 apple
3 baby carrots
1 tbsp light italian dressing
2 slices of light wheat bread

    I've had mine for close to a year and I love it!!! However, I only make my protein shakes or fruit smoothies in it...

    I'm a vegetarian and would LOVE to hear if anyone has recipes!

    My son is a vegetarian too! I made him the chicken salad, but used the vegetarian version of the chicken...forget the name of it though.

    I bought the Ninja prep pro. Bought mine at Target for $50...LOVE it! Best blender I have ever had and I have had 3 differant ones within the last 2 years...I blend alot...LOL! I have the Magic bullet too which I do like, but the Ninja is WAY better!

    I have the Magic Bullet. I make "like IceCream" I use Fresh Fruit and Skim Milk. (2 Parts Fruit to 1 Part Milk) and I freeze the mixture. I've also used Iced Tea and Juice instead of Milk, comes out GREAT!

    I LOVE my Ninja! I have the little blue one that came out about 2 or 3 yrs ago. I so want the KS1100!!! I use my Ninja all the time. Not just to make drinks (healthy and with liquor) I also use it to chop onions, bell peppers, carrots, etc... stuff that will not go to mush righ away and it doesnt matter that they are all the same size. A few pulses does the job well and saves me a lot of time and tears. I also make a mean salsa in it. My hubby likes to mix the pancake batter and I like to liquefy chunky soups into creamy soups too! Ohhh and I have also made ice cream.

    I have not done it yet but I want to try: Turning ice into snow + flavored syrup = snow cone

    Strawberry Ice Cream (can be done with any frozen fruit really, I also freeze bananas)
    1 cup of frozen strawberries
    1/4-1/2 cup of evaporated milk
    sugar or honey to taste

    Blend the strawberries with a little bit of the milk. Add the milk gradually until you reach the desired consistency. Add sugar/honey after blending to add any needed sweetness.

    My favorite is peach ice cream.
    1 c. Frozen peaches
    1 c. Milk - I use 2%, have a child
    3 packets of Splenda

    Mix about 30 seconds and it is like soft serve or you cab throw n the freezer for a few minutes to firm up

    This make 2 cups of ice cream. As is about 86 calories per cup

    You can also use frozen strawberries

    HaHa....I clicked on this to see what a Ninja recipe was. I was thinking it would something with hidden or camoflaged ingrediants.
