The Vitamix Turboblend is a very powerful machine that can make almost anything. If the pocketbook will allow it, and if you are something of a foodie, it's a great investment, it'll likely last forever and expand your horizons in the kitchen making top quality nourishing meals. The blender is much quieter then most other blenders. This is not your average kitchen blender! It's a very high tech machine. It blends things quickly and completely and allows you to really get creative with your drinks. You can make everything from nut butters, to grinding wheat for whole grain, homemade nutella and green smoothies every day. The super-efficient 2-peak horsepower motor runs substantially cooler when mixing thicker ingredients like nut butters and frozen treats. It is easy to clean and is very versatile.

Nut Butter Recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1 pound (3 1/2 cups) shelled raw nuts.
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste.
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 3 to 4 tablespoons canola or peanut oil.
Preparation:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spread the nuts on a baking sheet and roast for 10 to 15 minutes, or just until they begin to brown. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the nuts to cool slightly.
2. Place the nuts, salt, and honey in your vitamix turbo blender. Blend for 20 seconds. With the motor still running, drizzle 3 tablespoons of oil into the bowl through the chute in the lid, and process for 30 seconds. If the nut butter is still dry, continue to blend and add the additional tablespoon of oil. Process for up to another minute to reach your desired consistency. Taste and adjust for salt, if needed.
