I'm really considering one of these. The end product has got to be much more healthful than a juicer. What kind of protein powder do you use?

I buy the Whey Protein Powder from Costco, Vanilla flavour.

I have tried juicing and there is a lot of waste.

Tomorrow I am going to put spinach and broccoli in as my greens. I have also bought some Chia Seeds to through in which are very good for you.

Thanks enjoyingspring for posting this. I have a 30% off coupon for Kohl's plus I have a gift card from there so am thinking I might get one. I bought a Ninji at Walmart in the discount aisle for $21 but it is so big and those blades scare me. I cut myself with a blender blade once. I haven't used the Ninji yet, want to look at the Nultibullet first.

I know you won't be disappointed with Nutribullet.

Would a magic bullet work to make these shakes? I threw away the instructions, but it would seem it would. Your shake sounds delicious. I would like to eat more kale, saw it at Trader Joe's in a big package like the pre-packaged salads.

You can buy a non flavor protein powder. I like that best.

My friend got a vita mix for Christmas! I sure wouldn't
be able to spend 400 for a blender! yeowch! lol she loves
it though.

Not sure if the Magic Bullet would grind the Kale or other vegatables as smooth as the nutribullet but it is worth the try.

I wasn't quite sure what you guys were talking about so I had to google Nutribullet. While checking it out, I found a link to a youtube video comparing the two. Here it is.....

Oh, and I think I would like to have a Nutribullet, plus yummy recipes from you all if I get one!

Here is a link that might be useful: Nutribullet vs Ninja

We ordered ours! I'm very excited about it...we both are.

I have the Ninja blender and small chopper that I got at Walmart for less then $35. I absolutely love it. You can do anything with it and it crushes ice for smoothies & ice coffee wonderfully.

Sleeperblues, I hadn't heard of a Magic Bullet, but no sooner did I read your post than a friend sent me a FB message saying his Magic Bullet does everything the Nutribullet does.

Enjoyingspring, you got me intrigued, so I looked up the Nutribullet and started watching YouTube videos. All the videos were very positive, giving high marks to the Nutribullet. But I was struck by the small quantity of vegetables that went into their drinks.

I'm sure this is because I'm used to juicing. Typically, I put 4 carrots, a small beet, 2 large stalks of celery, loads of romaine or kale, a chunk of ginger through the juicer, which comes out to one pint of juice. I realize that the juicer leaves behind a fair amount of solids behind. But I felt the chief advantage of juicing is that it enables you to consume a lot more vegetables than you could possibly eat whole. And the liquid is said to contain 95% of the nutrients. I know when I was juicing every morning I had dramatically more energy in the afternoon.

The people in the videos were putting a couple of handfuls of greens--usually spinach--in their Nutribullets, less than I'd put into a typical salad for myself. A few mini-carrots, or a half a regular carrot, went in too. Then, typically, lots of fruit. Berries. A whole banana. And water. I wasn't expecting the water at all.

I guess if I think about getting one of these I'll have to think of it completely separate from juicing. I wish I could talk to someone who does both.
