Ginger Fig NutriBullet Smoothie Recipe:  We have been eating healthier, I have been experiment with new health and not traditional smoothies.  This is my latest nutribullet creation. Blueberries, pineapple, banana, fig and ginger.   The benefits of blueberries is antioxidants which fights aging.   Bananas help overcome depression due high levels of tryptophan, which is converted into serotonin AKA( the happy-mood brain neurotransmitter.)  Ginger is a great to add to your diet it helps with stomach and digestion but some people find ginger helps them with the symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection, bronchitis, cough, menstrual cramps, arthritis and muscle pain.  Figs are a good source of potassium, a mineral that helps to control blood pressure.

Consider this smoothie to be your all around good for you drink.

TIP: I found the figs at at local produce stand when store properly the will be great for months.  I store on a zip lock in my cupboard.  The ginger can keep for month if left whole root in freezer.

A year with my Nutribullet Review:

I have owned my Nutribullet for a year,  it is used daily in our home by both my husband, myself or my kids.   I really love how it makes all the ingredients smooth no chunks of frozen fruit once blended a year after I received the NutriBullet it still blending smoothly.

TIP: You must only fit to the fill line.  Do not go over the fill line because it need space for air to go during the blending process.

I also use mine to make sauces and bases. My son who does not like the texture of onions but like the flavor I will blend the onions in my nutribullet,  so I have a smooth non “onion slimy” consistence.  Also when I use the more smell items (Onion, garlic) the Nutribullet does not hold the flavor of past blends,  so you can never taste the onions in your smoothies.. which is a good thing. After a year I am still satisfied with my Nutribullet.

I make, smoothies, sauce, purees, humus,dips, gravy.

Space It takes little space on my counter.. I keep the large cup and blade out all the time.  I keep the other attachments in a bin on top of my fridge for easy access.
