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!

    I just love watching your YouTube videos and I have tried many of your recipes. They have all been a big hit in our home!

  7. Hey Lisa! I live in Manitoba Canada and I cannot begin to tell you how beneficial your content has been. I live on the prairies and am surrounded by farmland. Making food from scratch is a daily thing. Having a vitamix would change my cooking and baking so much! My food processor is older than I am (hand me down from a grandparent) and it doesn’t work well. 

  8. Sending all of the festive and positive vibes over to SoCal from the small and adorable Lunenburg, Nova Scotia (Canada). Congrats on this incredible cookbook, too. The wait is finally over and I’ve already made 3 recipes from it! :D

  9. I’m really enjoying your cookbook Lisa as the dishes I’ve prepared have been scrumptious!  It’s informative and I really like the layout of it. Great job!  You have to be so pleased with how well the cookbook has been received!

  10. Lisa, your recipes are amazing! Thank you for sharing so many wonderful recipes and tips!! I am in Buckeye, AZ. We’re finally getting some cooler temps and getting to enjoy your soups. Thanks again!!

  14. I am a huge fan from the Jersey Shore on the East Coast (Beachwood, NJ). I love all of your recipes and how simple the ingredients are. Makes clean eating so easy and so fun. Winning this would make it even easier for me.  Thank you! Merry Christmas! 

  15. I absolutely LOVE your YouTube channel and website❤️. I live in Nova Scotia, Canada and have purchased your cook on Amazon.ca for my own Christmas gift 🥰. I am a primary teacher and have 3 children of my own ages 8, 16 and 19. My oldest son is dairy free and my 8!year old daughter and myself are gluten free. Your recipes and knowledge have been amazing and extremely helpful to our family! I would love a signed copy of your book or a Vitamix…living in the cold climate we do (-5) most of this week, vitamins and minerals as well as greens are a necessity. Thank-you for all your hard work and for the amazing tips and recipes you share ❤️ Happy Holidays from Nova Scotia! 

  16. I love your recipes and would love to win a Vitamix and your new cookbook.  I already have your cookbook but would enjoy a second one to give as a gift.
