It’s that time of year for our annual Christmas giveaway! But this year I’m not only giving away a Vitamix, but also a signed copy of my Healthy Meal Prep cookbook!

It’s always so much fun for me to give these blenders away and brighten someone’s day. And today, one reader will have a chance to win my most prized kitchen tool — the Vitamix A3500 (read more about it here)!
Plus, you’ll be able to use this Vitamix for several of my favorite recipes in my meal prep cookbook! That includes recipes like my creamy white gazpacho, banana berry nice cream, all the hummus(s) you can imagine, and yes, even a dessert – my key lime tartelettes!

Love your cook book! I am meal prepping for my twin who is gluten and dairy intolerant. Thank you so much!!
Hello Lisa,
I stumbled across your YouTube channel and website a few years ago and thoroughly appreciated and enjoyed your clean, simple approach to meal prepping and cooking. I love how everything you make is so healthy and fresh and how all your recipes and tutorials are so easy to understand and follow. Your approach to clean cooking and healthy living is truly inspiring. As soon as I found out about your new cook book, I immediately purchased it through pre-order, at Chapters-Indigo bookstore. I was so excited when I finally received your cook book, and I absolutely love it! Thank you so much Lisa! Wishing you continued success.
Best,

A year into my GF, DF journey and I’ve just discovered you. Thank you for taking the time to make the work in the kitchen easy.
I have battled SLE, Anti-phospholipid syndrome, DVT and other ailments added to the list in time, since I was first diagnosed in 1993. I just recently found out this 2022 summer about Goodbye Lupus with Dr. Brooke Goldner and have been needing and looking for a VItamix.
I seen your contest and thought I would try.
Thank you for your time.

Yesterday was one of the happiest days of my life – St. Nick left for me under the tree a Vitamix 750 blender and Lisa Bryan’s cookbook. I feel like Adrian Monk when he bought (and danced with) the vacuum cleaner! So looking forward to a much, much healthier and happier 2023!
Love your recipes! My husband has had a heart attack, stroke, and has had Parkinson’s for over 10 years. I’m working to keep us as healthy as possible. Meal prep is a wonderful way to have food prepared! Thank you for all of your time, testing and effort! I’m from Salisbury Center N.Y.

Hi Lisa ! Well, finally this morning my cookbook arrived ! The book is so beautifully thought out and I simply can’t wait to read through the pages. I’ve been such a follower of yours since the beginning. Since following you, I have purchased the entire Allclad set, the Glasslock glass set and also the
Weck Jars. I grew to trust your recommendations and I haven’t been disappointed. Just love my stuff !!
…. I ended up getting 2 of your cookbooks, one for my daughter who is also a fan! I’m hoping to pass down my very very old vitamix to her lol

Hi, I’ve been following you on YouTube. Many years ago I worked at a Fortune 500 company but ended up with a chronic digestive illness and unable to work any longer. It is so important for me to find healthy, gluten free sometimes dairy free meals. I love your recipes. I used to have an old Vitamix and those are the BEST for people with digestive concerns. Congratulations on your book success. I’m looking forward to getting a copy.
By the way, I live in Ventura County, California
