This recipe sounds yummy but I would LOVE to see more recipes that you can make in the blender itself using the soup cycle such as the tortilla or broccoli cheddar soup that you have on your site. I just bought my blender and I am loving it. Please give us more recipes that allow us to use this awesome blender to its fullest ability. This blender rocks!!
lactose intolerant (not enough cheese to matter) so can I use Almond Milk instead?
Yes, you can!
Well I’m sure you could throw all the ingredients into the blender and it will make something. Just wouldnt taste like what the recipe intends. It is just a blender after all, not magic.
Thank you for your honest reply to the jerk.
