The Blender Girl: Super-Easy, Super-Healthy Meals, Snacks, Desserts, and Drinks–100 Gluten-Free, Vegan Recipes!

The debut cookbook from the powerhouse blogger behind theblendergirl.com, featuring 100 gluten-free, vegan recipes for smoothies, meals, and more made quickly and easily in a blender.

What’s your perfect blend?
 
On her wildly popular recipe blog, Tess Masters—aka, The Blender Girl—shares easy plant-based recipes that anyone can whip up fast in a blender. Tess’s lively, down-to-earth approach has attracted legions of fans looking for quick and fun ways to prepare healthy food. In The Blender Girl, Tess’s much-anticipated debut cookbook, she offers 100 whole-food recipes that are gluten-free and vegan, and rely on natural flavors and sweeteners. Many are also raw and nut-, soy-, corn-, and sugar-free.
 
Smoothies, soups, and spreads are a given in a blender cookbook, but this surprisingly versatile collection also includes appetizers, salads, and main dishes with a blended component, like Fresh Spring Rolls with Orange-Almond Sauce, Twisted Caesar Pleaser, Spicy Chickpea Burgers with Portobello Buns and Greens, and I-Love-Veggies! Bake. And even though many of Tess’s smoothies and shakes taste like dessert—Apple Pie in a Glass, Raspberry-Lemon Cheesecake, or Tastes-Like-Ice- Cream Kale, anyone?—her actual desserts are out-of this-world good, from Chocolate-Chile Banana Spilly to Flourless Triple-Pecan Mousse Pie and Chai Rice Pudding. Best of all, every recipe can easily be adjusted to your personal taste: add an extra squeeze of this, another handful of that, or leave something out altogether— these dishes are super forgiving, so you can’t mess them up.
 
Details on the benefits of soaking, sprouting, and dehydrating; proper food combining; and eating raw, probiotic-rich, and alkaline ingredients round out this nutrient-dense guide. But you don’t have to understand the science of good nutrition to run with The Blender Girl—all you need is a blender and a sense of adventure. So dust off your machine and get ready to find your perfect blend.

    I live in the south of France now and just discovered the Blender Girl blog. I am gluten, egg and dairy free due to food allergies… yikes, and I LOVE this blog and now this amazing book!!! Well done. beautiful piece of work, lots of great recipes.. although there is no Kale here but I can grow it in my garden… as well as I can scrounge up other ingredients thanks to the internet :-).. I have a Vitamix and now will be using it every day!!Thanks you Tess!!!

    ‘The Blender Girl’ by Tess Masters was beyond my expectations. I bought it when I was searching for a good recipe book to use with my new Omni Blender (think vitamix/blendtec.) I knew my big boy blender had many uses, and I wanted to get my money’s worth out of it. This book does not disappoint, but more than that, these recipes are absolutely amazing! Though I lean towards a vegan diet, I am not a vegan and neither is my hubby. Yet, these recipes will definitely appeal to vegans and non-vegans alike. This is not a smoothie book (though smoothie recipes are included), there is plenty of variety here! Amazing dips, sauces, drinks, salad dressings, casseroles, soups, main dishes, you name it! If you get this book, you HAVE to try the raspberry cheesecake smoothie- gorgeous! As well as trying the Alkaline tacos and edamame dip- a-MAZ-ing! The vegan mayo is my go-to mayonnaise recipe now. I used to try to make it with eggs, but it just was the store mayo I grew up on (I know, that sounds awful!) I needed that creamy mayo that I was used to- this recipe does it! There is nutritional info included here as well, and I use it as a reference (and believe me, I have a LOT of health reference books!) This book is well made, beautifully crafted, and has awesome recipes. Definitely worth buying.

    Love the receipes, an easy read and easy to make receipies with nice pictures, it’s the book laying on my countertop since a few month now, and I tried already a few receipies! I would buy it again!
