Four Year Vita-mix Anniversary Celebration with Smoothie Recipe!

[Tanni]

Hey everyone!

Remember when I made the post where I was celebrating the one year anniversary of my Vita-mix blender? Well here I am again, three years later and I couldn't help but notice the date!  January 17, 2013 ~ I have had my Vita-mix for FOUR years!!!

Here she is;  still going strong!

I am very happy that I noticed this!  I think it can be really beneficial to celebrate milestones as it is a reminder of how far you have come which helps create inspiration for now and the future!

When I think back to the shape I was in four years ago it gives me perspective on where I am today.  And this makes me feel SO GRATEFUL!  I am so thankful to be alive and able to breathe, feel, run, touch, laugh, play and so much more!  I am also so happy to be right here and on my other sites helping and inspiring others to find their way!  I thank you all for that!

As some of you may already know, my Vita-mix played a HUGE role on my road to recovery!  Mainly in the area of helping me make amazing and healthy smoothies and green smoothies!

I would like to celebrate today by sharing a smoothie recipe with you all!  It is very simple yet REALLY delicious!

Banana-Apple-Cinnamon-Love Smoothie 

1 cup water

3 bananas

1 large apple

Cinnamon to taste

5 ice cubes

Blend and enjoy!!!!!

This smoothie is seriously SO yummy!  And it is a great winter smoothie as it has kind of a cozy feel to it.  Cinnamon is also a warming spice so it can help heat up your insides on a cold winter day!  Oh, and did I mention that it’s really healthy too (and of course vegan, gluten-free and raw)?  Yeah!  Can’t beat that!

One more thing I would like to mention in celebration of all of this Vita-mix and smoothie stuff is that I am planning to do an updated green smoothie post sometime soon.  So stay tuned for that!

Thank you all for being here with me today and sharing my joy and gratitude and excitement and everything else!

~Spread LOVE~

A nice simple recipe, Tanni.  I've been craving cinnamon today.  Fortunately, I read your blog and have everything here to give your recipe a try.    Thank You,

Wow well done, I am desperate for a vita mix oh and a good dehydrator lol

@djd ~  You most certainly could add greens!  I drink 2 HUGE green smoothies every, single day so to me this one is a "treat" in its simplicity and difference from them!  :)  

@Joe ~ Yay for healing with Vita-mix help!  Yeah, I have had that issue somewhat too and know there are others that do as well.  Other than that, I couldn't be happier with it!

My vita-mix is almost 2 yrs old. I remember what kinda shape I was in 2yrs ago too. Now if I could just get rid of the film on the pitcher.... and yes, I've tried everything the website suggested.

 

God's Love to ALL

You could just add some greens to this recipe ......

I also appreciate our vita-mix.
