Today I have the most amazing giveaway for you guys! It’s easily one of the most valuable giveaways I’ve ever hosted on this blog and I have a feeling you guys will be psyched!
Anyone need a new blender?
As I am sure you can see, this is not your typical run-of-the-mill blender. It’s a Blendtec blender, valued at $455!
This fancy blender is high-powered (1560 watts) and laughs in the face of ice and rock-hard frozen fruit. (It actually comes with an ice-crushing guarantee, which I found humorous.) For those of you who can never seem to make a smooth smoothie, that shouldn’t be a problem with this bad boy.
The Blendtec is high-powered enough to be used as a food processor and easily blends nuts into creamy nut butter! You can use it to make soup, milkshakes, dips, marinades, pesto, jam, mousse and more.
As you can see below, the buttons on the front of the Blendtec make it easy to understand which setting to choose to properly blend whatever delicious foods or liquids you’ve placed in the blender.
This giveaway is sponsored by the awesome people at Stonyfield and when they reached out to me about this giveaway, I couldn’t jump on board fast enough.
One PBF reader will receive a Blendtec blender and a bunch of delicious Stonyfield Blends organic yogurt! The French vanilla yogurt is my favorite and is a fantastic base for creamy fruit smoothies. And I highly recommend sticking the strawberry banana yogurt in the freezer for an hour or so like I did one day because it makes one heck of a yummy, dessert-like snack!
To enter this giveaway, simply comment on this post, telling me why you’d like to win this amazing blender and Stonyfield Blends yogurt. I will randomly select one winner next Friday, February 22.

Good luck!
My husband and I have been LONGING for a blender for a while now but some other expense always seems to come up and we’ve yet to purchase one. Our 3 year old daughter has recently become very picky and now turns her nose to most veggies and she used to love them, bummer! We are a very health-conscious family (I’m a life long runner/recent triathlete so I love all your workout-related posts) and providing our daughter with a healthy diet is extremely important to us. We need to sneak her veggies into super healthy but fun and tasty smoothies! This blender would mean a lot to our family and help our daughter through her “picky” food stage.
Btw, just wanted to tell you how much I love your blog. I stumbled across it while searching for pumpkin cookie recipes and I now read it every day. I was born and raised in FL and went to UCF for two years (1999-2001, Journalism/Mass Comm) but have lived in California since late 2001 so I love to all of your Orlando/FL posts SO MUCH! Reminds me of home – we are trying to move back. Anyways, just wanted to let you know!! I’ve been wanting to start a blog of my own for awhile now and you are an inspiration!!

Oh my! This is fantastic! Stonyfield is my absolute favorite kind of yogurt, and I’m in desperate need of a new blender. My brother broke my nice smoothie blender a number of years ago, so all I’ve been using since is my little personal-sized Oster bullet one (that does NOT blend cold things well at all…frozen fruit gets stuck on the blades). I would love this blender! 🙂

OH and I liked Stonyfield on FB (we actually eat their yogurt all the time, that is one thing my daughter loves!!) and I also signed up for the recipe of the week.
I trying to have more smoothies in my diet because it’s a quick way to get raw nutrients in my daily diet!
Ah! Ok so I would love to win this blender, and here’s why. I’m a college student and my roommates and I are currently using a blender that…well…makes some noises and doesn’t blend at all! Summer is coming up, and as a smoothie fanatic I can’t imagine going the rest of the semester without one! They’re so easy, healthy and delicious…particularly if I had my very own Blendtec 🙂
I would LOVE to have a blender that does not leave chunks of ice so I can enjoy my protein shakes, smoothies and even milkshakes that are blended well!! The quality of this blender would make it possible to have for many years to come!
Would be a great win so I can try all your smoothie recipes!
My current blender leaks on occasion. I think we can all appreciate why this is kind of horrible haha!
we need a good blender for smoothies. our smells awful when blending ice…scary
Also, liked Stonyfield on FB!
I would LOVE to be luckily enough to win this because it would make eating healthy at college so much easier! Plus, I am such a fan of smoothies 🙂
Came across a bunch of great smoothie recipes the other day and was lamenting the fact that I don’t have a blender. This would be perfect!!
Liked on FB
OMG that blender looks amazing!! What I love about it most is that it is a blender and food processor in one!!! That will really cut down the space in the kitchen!
Also, I have never used yogurt in my smoothies and would love to try the Stoneyfields!

This blender looks amazing! I use mine almost everyday and could definitely use an upgrade!
Liked them on Facebook!
I have some horrible crap blender that always smells like burning rubber…I would love this new fancy one! 🙂
My blender is on the verge of dying and my smoothies are no longer creamy which makes me frustrated because I have them frequently for breakfast! I have also always wanted to try to make my own peanut butter, but given the state of my current blender that isn’t exactly an option!
I make a delicious protein smoothie every day and would absolutely LOVE to have this blender!!! What a cool give away!
I love my blender, but would love to try this one! I’d love something that I can make smoothies and nut butter all in one!
Liked on Facebook as well!
I would love to win this blender because I am in need of a good blender to make baby food for my six month old! I also love to make fruit smoothies!
I love smoothies but my curent blender never seems to totally cut through all of the ice. You don’t want to run it too long because then the smoothie gets too watery. This looks totally amazing – with the weather warming up on the east coast soon I would be using it quite a bit!
I’d like to win this bc my blender just bit the dust literally this week!!!
no joke…./my blender bit the dust this week! I have bragged about these blenders and I don’t have one, just what Julie tells us they can do! Nut butter…….seriously!!!!! my old blender you could still see big pieces of spinach in the smoothies! :(. I am training for my FIRST marthaon and smoothies and been critical in my training!!!! good luck!!!!!!!
IVE BEEN DROOLING OVER THAT BLENDER FOR MONTHS! My blender is on its way out. The idea that nothing can stop it is amazing!!
Great giveaway! I don’t currently have a blender, but know a morning started with a delicious smoothie would start the day off on the right foot! 🙂
Wow, awesome giveaway! I have an immersion blender that I love but my ‘real’ blender has seen much better days I would love this! Stonyfields blends sound amazing, love the idea of putting them in the freezer!
I would love to win this blender. A broken blender + being broke newlyweds= no smoothies (or margaritas) for us right now!
I’m graduating college in May and am planning on moving into my own apartment. This blender would be a fantastic addition to my future kitchen!

I have a veryyyyy finicky blender that sometimes just does not want to crush ice when all I want is a cold frothy smoothie!
I like stonyfield on facebook 🙂
I don’t own a blender, which sadly means that I can’t make so many of the awesome soup and smoothie recipes on this site…fingers crossed that that changes soon! 🙂
I have the worst blender ever right now, I never drink smoothies because they are a texture nightmare. I need more smoothies in my life!!
I have heard such amazing things about this blender. What a wonderful giveaway. I would like to win the blender because my current one is about 11 years old and creates a burning smell when I make my morning smoothies. The yogurt…well, who wouldn’t want that!
Thanks for the great give-away!

I’d LOVE to win this Blendtec! I bet it makes the most amazing protein shakes ever! 🙂 and who doesn’t love Stonyfield?!
I NEED this blender! I’m pretty sure my blender was a wedding present to my parents, so it has seen better days and likes to leave chunks in my “smooth”ies.
OMG! I have lusted over the Blendtec for so long! My blender can’t even handle a piece of frozen Mango 🙁 I wish I had the money to buy one…. but sadly $455 is a little (LOT) out of my budget!
I love to win the Blender so I could finally make my own nut butter! I have so many combinations in mind…first up would have to be cashew and coconut!
