"Barbecue season is coming into full swing and Americans are turning to burgers, brats and beer. With 35% of Americans classified as obese by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it’s time to think about healthy, nutritious alternatives to the usual menu.
Emmy-winning talk show host and wellness advocate Montel Williams is passionate about diet, exercise and overall health and he wants to share his suggestions for healthy summer fare, all made using the breakthrough product that he uses every day to manage his weight: the HealthMaster Elite.
This revolutionary product helps Montel emulsify fruits and vegetables, which amount to 70% of his everyday diet."
Here are just a few recipes you can whip up with Montel's HealthMaster Elite:

Low-Fat Spinach Artichoke Dip

1 cup nonfat sour cream or yogurt (try Greek yogurt for extra nutrition)

Add all ingredients, except spinach, into the HealthMaster pitcher and run until blended. Add spinach and pulse til spinach is chopped. Serve with fresh raw vegetables or baked tortilla chips.

Traditional Iceberg Wedge with Low-Fat Bleu Cheese Dressing
Dressing: 45 calories and 3 grams of fat per serving

Montel’s Healthy Summer Smoothie
3 cups chopped watermelon
2 cups chopped pineapple
1 peeled banana
A handful of spinach
1 cup coconut water
1 tbsp SafSlim (if you’re on a diet, it helps reduce belly fat and curb appetite)Add all ingredients to HealthMaster and blend until smooth.


What we thought:  Wowza!  There is some serious power behind this blender!  It can emulsify just about anything in a matter of minutes!  This is really great when you want to keep the nutrients found in the peels of most fruits in vegetables, but you want a completely smooth end result.  We have made many different smoothies and slushies with our HealthMaster Elite and I love that you can control the consistency so easily.  It works great with frozen fruit and ice:)  And clean up is a breeze!  The accompanying cookbook is fantastic and full of tons over yummy recipes.  We can't wait to try some of the soups this fall!  What a great way to easily "healthify" your snacks and meals:)  ABCD Diaries gives the HealthMaster Elite an A+!
