Carrots

Homemade Carrots

Ingredients:

Carrots (I used Parisian carrots because I liked the size of them. so I figured, why not? Any carrots will work.)

Water

How to Make:

1) I boiled these carrots until they were fork tender. 

2) Just like I did with the green beans, I first added some water to the Vitamix and then added the carrots. 

3) Turn Vitamix on Variable. Start at 1 and quickly turn up to 10. Let blend about 1-2 minutes until the carrots are pureed.

Green Beans

Homemade Green Beans

Ingredients: 

Green Beans

Water

*I don't really measure things out. I just dumped in some beans and used about 3/4 cup of water. I probably could have used a bit less, but they still came out great!

**If you're not using fresh fruits or veggies, it is better to use frozen than canned. Frozen fruits and veggies hold more of their nutrients than their canned counterparts. 

To make: 

1. Steam the green beans until they are no longer crunchy.

2. For green beans I use my amazing Vitamix. Pour water into the Vitamix and then add beans. Turn on (variable setting) and quickly work up to 10 (the highest setting). Just let it blend for a few minutes and voila! Green beans for dinner!
