  1. I’ve made this twice so far (just made it again this morning) — it’s very good. I add a packet of stevia just to make it a little sweeter.

  2. I want the Vitamix so badly. I saw them at Costco the other day for $449 I think which is still not in my budget right now. I have the Ninja and uilkne Joy above I really don’t like mine, but it works well enough for now. I burned out the motor on an Oster blender prior to the Ninja.
