Why the Magic Bullet is a must have for every kitchen

My husband bought me a Magic Bullet a few years ago for Christmas. Since then it has become one of my favorite kitchen gadgets. The Magic Bullet is a great little blender/food processor.

I absolutely love mine! We use ours daily. Some of things we use ours for are for smoothies, iced coffee, milkshakes, scrambled eggs, mixed drinks (my favorite is a strawberry daiquiri), to chop up vegetables, and we even use it to make baby food.

The Magic Bullet is easy to use. To use it all you have to do is: 1) Load the ingredients into one of the cups that came with it. 2) Twist on whichever blade you want to use (cross or flat). 3) Line up the tabs (each cup has 3 tabs on the lid) as you place the cup on the power base and press down to turn it on. As long as you're pressing down on the cup, it is on. Let go to turn off or if you want to use it hands free press down and turn slightly clockwise and it will stay on until you are ready to turn it off by turning slightly counter-clockwise.

I use my Magic Bullet daily to mix up my Crystal Light drinks

I just add water and ice to one of the party mugs, add a Crystal Light packet, and mix it up.

I recommend that everyone watch both videos. They really do a good job at showing you everything you can do with a Magic Bullet. They show you how to use it for breakfast, for appetizers, desserts, and drinks (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic).

    Great article. I have been wanting to get one of these for some time. I will have to wait till I move as my little kitchen now won't hold another thing.

    I have always wondered if these were really worth it. They do seem like a handy little item to keep in the kitchen.

    I've been on the fence for one of these for quite some time. My kitchen is already full of gadgets but the smoothie making ability of the magic bullet is something I'd love to have. It just moved near the top of my wish list thanks to your lens! :)
