Teri’s Vita Mix Recipe Cheat Sheet /Demo Recipes

Below are easy tips for enjoying a Vita Mix Machine.

TIPS FOR JUICE

A-REMEMBER TO USE A LITTLE BIT OF LIQUID OR A JUICEY FRUIT OR VEGETABLE ON THE BOTTOM WHEN MAKING A JUICE. I USUALLY USE A CUP OF GRAPES.

B-SOFT THINGS ON THE BOTTOM ICE ON TOP

C-MAKE SURE YOU RUN THE VITA MIXER ABOUT 90 SECONDS TO ACTUALLY JUICE TO THE CELLULAR LEVEL. THE MORE PULP AND SEEDS YOU ADD THE LONGER YOU WILL RUN THE MACHINE.

D-JUICES CAN BE STORED OVER NIGHT IN AN AIR TIGHT CONTAINER LIKE A MASON JAR.  I ALSO FREEZE JUICE MAKING POPSICLES OR PUTTING IT IN A SMOOTHIE CUP.  IF IT IS IN A SMOOTHIE CUP PUT THE CUP INTO THE FRIDGE THE NIGHT BEFORE YOU WANT IT.

SOUPS

-A BASIC VEGETABLE SOUP BROTH REQUIRES ONLY A FEW INGREDIENTS.

ONE ROMA  TOMATOE
ONE LARGE CARROT
ONE LARGE CELERY STALK
ONE GREEN ONION
A SMALL HANDFUL OF CABBAGE

FOR SEASONING
ONE CLOVE OF GARLIC
SALT AND PEPPER, SOY SAUCE, SPICE BLEND OR ANY OTHER FLAVORING.

THREE CUPS OF WATER. NOTE IF THE WATER IS HOT IT WILL MAKE IT FASTER.

YOU CAN ALWAYS ADD A LITTLE OF ANYTHING ELSE YOU DESIRE TO ADD MORE NUTRITION, REMEMBER THE MORE YOU ADD THE THICKER YOUR BROTH WILL BE.

RUN ON HIGH UNTIL YOU SEE A NICE ROLLING STEAM COMING FROM THE LID.

SELECT VARIABLE ON THE SWITCH TURN TO A VARIABLE ONE, ADD TEXTURE.  COOKED RICE, BEANS, CHICKEN ECT.

ICE CREAM

A-COVER BLADE WITH ANY KIND OF LIQUID BASE YOU DESIRE, CREAMER, JUICE, COCONUT MILK, ECT.

THIS WILL BE ABOUT ONE TO ONE AND ONE HALF CUPS OF LIQUID.

B-ADD THREE CUPS FROZEN FRUIT OR ICE OR A COMBINATION OF THE TWO.

C-REMEMBER YOU CAN ADD A LITTLE CARROTS, CABBAGE, OR SPINACH TO YOUR ICE CREAM. IF IT FITS IN YOUR HAND YOU WONT TASTE IT.

FOR FRUIT ICE CREAM I ADD, ONE CUP FROZEN FRUIT TO CUPS ICE TO THE LIQUID.

 

THE LIQUID I PREFER IS 100% JUICE, OLD ORCHARD HAS SOME EXCELLENT FLAVORS. YOU CAN ALSO ADD COCONUT MILK, OR ANY FLAVOR OF COFFEE MATE CREAMER.
