I was a little leery to buy the NutriBullet as I had bought the Magic Bullet and was very disappointed in the performance of the device for anything other than smoothies.  My mother in-law uses the Ninja and she was kinda swerving me in that direction. So one day my mom brings over her NutriBullet and I used it to make a standard protein shake, no frills and I was in heaven!  So I finally decided to purchase the product from Amazon .  I'm really looking forward to whipping up some of the delicious nutritional shakes from the recipe book. And if I can get the kids to drink them ... yay mommy success! I will be reviewing the product and posting a final review in the weeks coming. So make sure you subscribe to my blog to get the update.
