I've heard several folks on these forums talk about the magic bullet (?) but we have a ninja food processor that I dearly love.  For my protein shakes though, I just picked up a little Oster blender at Target for about $20.   It blends basically one shake at a time, and it's made to drink straight from the blender jar.   Very easy to use and clean.  I haven't had my surgery yet; just been doing protein shakes now for a few days so my little Oster blender is all I've needed so far.

Regards,

I purchased a Cuisanart Immersion Blender on Amazon....LOVE IT!  Used it to puree everything from beef stew to chili to chunky soups right after surgery...it was great!  I think I paid $29.  And, for my shakes, I use the Cooks brand of Magic Bullet...certainly does a great job but I've been using it a bit over a year now and I'm thinking it's time for  a new one.

 I just got the $20 bullet type individual blender from Walmart.  It was a lifesaver in the beginning, but I rarely use it now so I wouldn't invest a lot in it.

Honestly, I have the bullet from years ago and I used it, maybe 6 times... I'm not super creative though.

I ate mostly stuff that was already in good shape, like tuna, cottage cheese, eggs...

In the VERY early days I did toss some cream soup in a bleander, but I felt silly... just chewed it, but my doc was okay with that when it came to cream soup... I only blended because of what I read on here  :-)

I think some of the best advice I got was don't overbuy... I am a nester, so that was tough for me, but I tried hard to listen... I still have some broth and a soup or 2 kicking around, but I was a good girl.  I was sleeved 5 months ago.

I didn't buy a food processor to puree my foods. I ate either soft foods or I just put them in your typical blender.
