Nutri Ninja Auto-IQ blender : Get the quality you've been waiting for with some super tasty smoothies too.

 This is sponsored post where I was given a product to test in exchange for my honest opinion. All things stated are that of my own thoughts and experiences.

You know what I discovered early on in motherhood— smoothies. The homemade kind. You know what I never knew could taste so good— vegetable smoothies. You know what I'm amazed by— the fact that I can get my servings of vegetables and fruit into my family by simply blending a few ingredients in my Nutri Ninja and drinking it straight out of a cup. Or straw. Or freeze it into a popsicle. I can even make soup! Soup!


And you know what is even more awesome than the taste—my children drink them too. After all, this was the reason behind my most recent Google search term: force vegetables down my child's throat any way possible.

Okay, maybe that wasn't my search term. But "vegetable fruit smoothie," and "help a mama out" was. Smoothies has been the craze over social media and motherhood it seems. And although it's something that I had been playing around for years, I could never actually find the love and passion for it the way that I had hoped. There's a reason for that. It was all about the blender, and at that time, I wasn't using the right one. And now, ever since the Nutri Ninja graced us with its presence, I've taken making smoothies to a whole new level.

Features and Design

Auto-IQ technology. I wasn't sure what to think about this when I first read about the feature, but I quickly learned that it was probably my most favorite part of the blender altogether. Actually, to be honest, I thought the blender was initially broken when I first turned it on and pressed start because it kept stopping and starting back up. When in truth, it was just smarter than its owner. Me.


Efficient. One thing that really irritated me with my old blender is that the ice and other ingredients like skin of apples, celery, etc, would take forever to be completed crushed and blended through. That problem is eliminated with the Nutri Ninja.

Extract Hidden Nutrition. When it comes to making smoothies, the main reason for it is for the nutrition so of course I wanted a blender that would provide me with the ultimate amount from my fruits and vegetables.

Suctions to the counter. Why doesn't every company think of these brilliant features? No more messes created from knocking over your blender or filling it too much that it knocks over on its own. The suction cups on the bottom have a nice strong seal on my counter that I literally have to put some muscle into pulling it off once I am ready to clean and put it away. Plus, I have my own personal ninja living in my home that likes to walk by and throw things down or throw cars at various locations in the house. Essentially a disaster waiting to happen.



Cost

Right now, you can buy the Nutri-Ninja Nutrient & Vitamin Extractor & The Total Crushing Blender for $199+ free shipping and handling. That's a savings of $185 for a blender that just can't be beat. It's one of those items in your home that is worth spending the extra money to get the quality that one is looking for. Otherwise, you'll wind up like I did where I just gave up on my blender and let dust build up on it for years.

My Favorite Recipe

Nutri-Ninja also has a variety of recipes to try. I found one using ingredients I would have never thought to put together called the Antioxidant Refresher, and it is as tasty as it looks friends.

Moral of the Story

After experiencing a cheap blender for years, and then now the Nutri Ninja for the past month, I can confidentially say friends that spending the extra money on quality will give you a better result and success in the end. And you'll be a much happier person knowing that you are getting all the fruits and vegetables you need. And if you have kids, then your kids will secretly love you too. For them, it's a treat.
