Great recipes!
This cookbook offers an array of recipes to make using your Vitamix. It even starts with a chart comparing Vitamix models in case you're looking to purchase or upgrade.Having only had my Vitamix for a few weeks, I'm still learning everything that it can do. I've used it multiple times a day since purchasing it.This cookbook has some great recipes not found in the cookbook that accompanies the Vitamix. These aren't really main meals, more soups, dips and burger patties - but all original and the photos make a nice finishing touch. I am especially keen to try some of the variations on hummus and the black bean burgers.It's true that a lot of the recipes call for some preparation (chopping, simmering, baking in the oven), but let's face it, the repertoire of Vitamix recipes in general would be pretty small if it was just limited to recipes you can throw in the Vitamix without any kind of prep (as nice as that is!)My only disappointment is that there are no suggestions for replacing common allergens like wheat/gluten, dairy, eggs or nuts. This book does not claim to be allergy-friendly so I can't complain too much. I'll be trying many of the recipes with my own substitutions and a bit of trial and error.I purchased this book in Kindle format and, while not perfectly optimised for Kindle, it's still readable.Looking forward to trying more Vitamix recipes! Thank you.

High quality, great presentation, lots and lots of great recipes.
This is a great book! I have had a Vitamix for 3 or 4 years, and we have used it, but not to its fullest potential. We have always made a few of our favorite things, but have never really explored all the possibilities. When I saw this book, I thought that it would be worth the small investment (compared to the big price of buying the Vitamix).This is a high quality book. The presentation is fantastic with lots of images and the recipes are laid out well. The first thing that impressed me about the book was the amount of recipes. There are 8 chapters or different sections, with each having 10 to 15 different recipes. The Soups section and Burgers section will be the place that I will start first, but it will take a long time to try all of these recipes.I am excited to really start using my Vitamix again. Thanks!

Great recipe book for Vitamix
This is a great recipe book with pictures and nutritional values listed after each recipe which is very important to me as I am a T1 diabetic.

Yummy soup recipes!
Picture of my homemade pesto sauce with home grown fresh basil. I like the Kindle Format because I can find my recipe while shopping at the store just by checking my phone. I like the soup and hummus recipes too. Next to try: black bean and quinoa burger recipes. This book has the recipes divided into categories.I got tired of finding random recipes on You Tube for my Vita Mix. Every recipe I've tried is easy and delicious. I'm on my 2nd batch of broccoli cauliflower soup, only I substituted coconut milk for almond milk.If you own a Vitamix, you need these recipes!! Can't wait to try All the Soups!

OK - but not great.
I'm new to using the Vitamix and wanted some easy and interesting recipes. But too many soup recipes require too much preparation before the food goes into the Vitamix. Why should I cook everything first - I might as well use an immersion blender. Was also hoping for more smoothie recipes that do not use ice.

Vitamix
I've been very interested in buying a vitamix blender and I decided to purchase this book because it was recommended by a friend. This cookbook answered all the questions I needed because I didn't know all the possibilities that this machine can create. This book certainly help me make up my mind about purchasing. The recipes seem very delicious and healthy so I'm very excited for my machine to arrive. I will keep you guys updated on my progress with the machine and cook.

and I would definitely recommend it to others
The information on how to actually use the Vitamix is very helpful. The recipes are ok but not necessary ones that fit my palate. However, that doesn't take away from it's usefulness, and I would definitely recommend it to others.

For the chocolate milkshake alone
Live your best life with natural ingredients! This book has some fantastic, easy to whizz, ideas. It made my summer. The recipes are not overly complicated. Fantastically easy

Not as good as I had hoped
Somewhat disappointed with this book. I was expecting the quality of the book to match the quality of the machine, but alas, no such luck.

Good but minimal.
This is ok. The (very) few recipes are good. Slightly disappointed that I read the whole book in less than 15 minutes.
