Review of the "Magic Bullet" System

Whoa! I can not begin to say how impressed I am with this product! I have had my Magic Bullet for four years now and it was well worth the money spent! I have made many things from soups to sauce, milkshakes to smoothies, and even butters and juices!

The product comes with the base, which houses the electrical motors that turn the blade, cups of differing sizes to place the ingredients into, colored rims that you can screw on the tops to protect your mouth from the screw ridges and to help label which cup is yours, and two blades! The two different blades is what really makes this product great. With a regular blender, you only get one blade choice. Now you may have different buttons as to how fast or slow the blade spins, but you only have one option! With the Magic Bullet you can change out the blades to fit your needs of the product! You can perfectly shred cheese or smoothly blend anything with just a few taps on the top.

If you are looking to buy a blender I highly recommend the Magic Bullet system! It is compact compared to other blenders and easily stores in your cabinets! Also, all the parts are dishwasher safe and super easy to clean!

This is a product that every NoProKitchen should have! I'm NoProChef but you can definitely take my word for it!

Tomato Soup Thats Mmmm, mmmmm Better Than Campbell's

So there are a TON of tomato soup recipes out there that call for a lot of unhealthy things like cream, butter, and over salted chicken stocks. Its just too much! I prefer my tomato soup to be simple and about the tomato, what a concept right?!? I truly believe that my tomato soup is better than any soup out on the market, granted that's my opinion, but now you can try it to!



I start with canned tomatoes, they are already diced and you don't have to deal with all that mess! Empty the canned, diced tomatoes into a blender, I use a Magic Bullet because, well, its awesome!
Puree the tomatoes until they are smooth and, well, pureed... In the Magic Bullet it should only be about ten seconds or so. Once they are pureed, put the mixture into a small sauce pan over medium heat.

When the soup is on the stove, grab the holy trinity of herbs; basil, oregano, and thyme. Put a few dashes of each herb into the soup and allow it to simmer together. While the soup is simmering add a few pinches of salt and pepper to taste. The soup shouldn't need to simmer more than five minutes to be heated all the way through.

Once the soup is fully heated, pour it into your favorite soup bowl and enjoy! [Hopefully with some of my Grilled Cheese Dippers!]

What you Need

Canned, diced tomatoes
Blender [Magic Bullet if you're cool]
