New year, new you…right? Not necessarily in my home because we believe in good eating all year long. There’s really no point in depriving yourself of the good things in life and if you lead a balanced lifestyle you can enjoy the odd high calorie/sweet treat. As in everything moderation is key.
Our family is pretty late to the ‘smoothie party’ because we’ve never had a blender that did what it was supposed to…until now! I was thrilled to have Ninja Kitchen send me the Nutri Ninja Auto IQ Pro Compact system with Smooth Boost. That seems like it’s a mouthful to say but trust me, the Auto IQ and Smooth Boost features are what makes this system so great for making the ultimate smoothie. I had some doubts, most likely brought upon by the failings of past blenders in our home, but we have all enjoyed our Nutri Ninja blended smoothies so far.
For the first smoothie, I really wanted to put the Nutri Ninja through its paces to find out what it could really do. Yep, you guessed it…I went full-kale on the Nutri Ninja. For me, the ultimate smoothie no-no is remnant chunks of greens in an otherwise delicious smoothie.
