Video Blog Recipe – Tommy Thyme Soup

The weather is cooling down a little bit so it’s time to whip out the Vitamix not for smoothies but for SOUPS! This Tommy Thyme Soup is one of our new favourites and it is so easy to make. I’m using the latest Vitamix Ascent 3500i series. 

If you’re looking for a quality high powered blender look no further than the Vitamix Blender.
