Y’all remember my last Hamilton Beach Blender Giveaway, right? Well, I’m back with another! This time it’s the Single-Serve Blender – with 2 Jars and 2 Lids (51102). 51102  

“Why take out your big blender when all you need is one or two drinks? The Single Serve Blender is perfect when you want a smaller quantity of smooth refreshment and don’t want to clean a whole blender jar. 

Rushing through breakfast or skimping on your health with vending machine drinks is no way to start out the day or live a healthy lifestyle.  Instead, invest in a personal-size blender that makes it easy to have a nutritious beverage on the go. That’s right, the Hamilton Beach® Single-Serve Blender delivers all the delicious-tasting flavors of restaurant smoothies and frozen drinks at a fraction of the price.

What’s more, this little blender lets you personalize your recipes, perfect your mixology skills and control your portions, all in one. With its durable stainless steel blades and pulse blending action, it’s fully equipped to prepare a variety of great-tasting smoothies, shakes and more.”

  • 2 blender jars and 2 lids included
  • Travel lid lets you drink from the jar
  • Jar fits in most car drink holders
  • Great for fruit smoothies, icy drinks, shakes & more
  • Stainless steel blades
  • One-touch blending

  3. 1 15 oz jar Tostitos Salsa Con Queso-Medium

Instructions
  1. I like to set up a little assembly line of all the ingredients, and allow my guests to prepare their own nacho creations.
  2. Grab a handful of tortilla chips and place on plate.
  3. Add heated shredded pork to top of chips, using a spoon.
  4. Add heated salsa con queso to top of pork.
