WEEK 2: SOUPS & SNACKS

Lunch Is Served

When you need to get lunch on the table quickly but don’t want to skimp on flavor or nutrition, you can’t go wrong with soup. And with Vitamix, you can go from fresh ingredients to hot, steaming soup in about six minutes – without turning on your stove. Vitamix blenders are so powerful, the friction from the blades heats up the soup to the perfect serving temperature.

We’re also featuring a range of dip, spread, and nut butter recipes. Keep your tamper handy when making thicker blends – it’ll help keep the ingredients near the blades.

FEATURED EATS

Not many blenders can heat soup without a stove, or pulverize almonds into smooth, spreadable almond butter – but with Vitamix, lunch from scratch is fast, easy, and full of whole-food ingredients.

Vitamix Tip: Blending on High

Whether you’re making smoothies, soups, or even thicker blends like hummus or nut butter, you’ll almost always get the best results by starting the blender on low and quickly ramping up to high.

RECOMMENDED RECIPES

Vitamix makes so much more than smoothies. Try a few of the recipes below, and you’ll start to see how one blender can be the center of your mid-day meal.

Soups

Maple syrup, nutmeg and ground cinnamon add holiday flavor to this classic autumn soup. Garnish with roasted pumpkin seeds for even more holiday zest.

Transform raw ingredients into a piping hot soup in less than 10 minutes, from start to finish.

Serve this traditional chilled soup over chopped cucumbers and tomatoes for a refreshing twist.

This soup base is packed with nutrition from a variety of veggies, including celery, yellow squash, and cabbage. Other chunky ingredients are added toward the end of processing for interesting texture.

Dips & Hummus

This sweet, chunky salsa makes a great appetizer or chicken garnish.

A classic tomato blend that can be thrown together in minutes for those teenage invasions and impromptu parties.

Spice up your hummus with your favorite hot sauce. Just remember, the heat level you choose will be intensified in the Vitamix.

Our version of this Middle-Eastern dip contains chickpeas, garlic, and raw sesame seeds. It's traditionally served with flatbread, but crackers and tortilla chips are great, too.

Nut Butter

A hearty spread made with raw, roasted, or salted almonds that also works as a fruit dip.

This classic sandwich spread contains just one ingredient--peanuts.
