A Game Changer

I don't know about y'all, but I can get bored eating the same things over and over again. What I've realized is that if I play around with the texture of something, I can eat it many different ways and never get bored.  Enter the Magic Bullet Blender.  While it can't make half the things it says it can make, I use it all the time for smoothies (my freezer is stocked with frozen fruits that I freeze when they're in-season or cheap) and soups.

Here's one of my favorite soup recipes -- I rarely add cream/butter (cheddar, not goat cheese)/cheese but tend to spice it up with some black pepper or even red pepper flakes.  You can do it with fresh broccoli or frozen broccoli.  It's also a great way to use the stems.  I've made so many other veggie soups the same way -- corn, pea, cauliflower.  I do it with a baked/microwaved sweet potato, some water, a little bit of butter and madras curry.  Eat your heart out.
