Hi Guys, today I’m reviewing the Nutri Ninja Auto IQ Blender. LINK to Ninja Auto IQ: http://amzn.to/2aUEVnn CHICKEN KEBABS:    • Green Chicken Kebab Recipe   Auto IQ is preprogrammed settings so you don’t have to figure out how long to blend a drink. Just press the Blend button for softer ingredients like fresh fruit and leafy greens and the Ultra Blend button for harder things like ice, frozen fruit and nuts. A timer will count down when using either button. You can manually blend using the pulse button which needs to be pressed down and held similar to using a food processor to chop vegetables. If you press the start button, the blender will run continuously up to 60 seconds.

The unit measures inches tall by inches wide and weighs about pounds. It comes with the base, 24 oz cup, 18 oz cup, 2 lids, one blade assembly, instruction manual and book with recipes for smoothies, dressings and dips. You can use the pulse button to grind raw meat and make dips. There are loading instructions always start with softer ingredients and put ice or frozen fruit last. There is cord storage on the bottom and the base has suction cups to keep it in the place. Let’s test this Ninja.

To use, plug in the machine. There is no light that goes on to tell you the machine is on. First, I’ll make a vegetable smoothie. I’m using the 24 oz cup. Start with some cucumber, carrot, red onion, cilantro, salt and tomato. Top with ½ cup ice. Don’t fill above the max fill line. Screw the blade on tight. Flip the cup, align the tabs and put it in the base, twist clockwise and you’ll hear that locking click. Let’s use the Ultra Blend button. It’s normal for the blender to pulse and pause while blending. There will be a countdown timer and the blender automatically stops when the timer reaches 0. Turn the cup counterclockwise and pull straight up. Unscrew the blade assembly.

Mango Lassi fresh cut up mango, yogurt, a little sugar, little ice. Blend. Remove the blade. If you want to use the lid, screw it on and press it firmly to get a good seal.

Marinade for extremely flavorful and healthy chicken kebabs garlic, ginger, cilantro, mint, green chile, salt, fresh lemon juice. Use the pulse button a few times. I want this marinade to be smooth so I’ll press start and let it run. If you want to see how these juicy chicken kebabs turned out, click below to watch that video.

Don’t blend hot liquids in this unit. Do not process dry ingredients without liquid.
The cups and blade assembly are dishwasher safe. The lids are top rack dishwasher safe. The base can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
