A low quality blender will give you lumpy smoothies. A good blender will make smoothies with a nice velvety texture.<\/p>\n<p>I use a Blendtec blender. It wasn&#8217;t cheap, but after comparing it to a cheap blender you&#8217;ll find it to be well worth the extra money.<\/p>\n<p>The Bledntec is also great for making soups, salad dressing, and homemade sauces <strong>with no preservatives<\/strong>. I made some hot sauce the other day using fresh, organic habanero peppers that was out of sight!<\/p>\n<p>A more affordable blender that I&#8217;ve heard good things about is a KitchenAid 5-speed blender. It&#8217;s a notch below the Blendtec in terms of quality, and only comes with a 1 year warranty (the Blendtec comes with a 7 year warranty), but for less than a quarter of the price it&#8217;s a great blender for the money.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any tasty smoothie recipes you would like to share, please do so in the comment section below.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pumpkin smoothies are a tasty (and healthy) Halloween treat I think you&#8217;ll enjoy.
