Hi, I’m Lenny the Vitamix guy
You already did the hard part…
You got the Vitamix.
Now let’s actually use it.
Your what-do-I-make-next answer. Your reason to fire it up today. Think book club. But this is for Vitamix owners.
We have helped thousands of people over 12+ years. Here’s what some say has changed for the better.
So join us. Like, today! You already did the hard part.
Lenny Gale, lenny@blendingforgood.com
PS. We are not getting rich doing this. We just know there are thousands of Vitamix owners out there, many of whom bought a Vitamix after seeing one of our videos, whose lives could significantly change for the better in the way they intended when they bought the dang thing if they simply let go of whatever’s holding them back from joining us.

Meet Shalva & Lenny
This is our life’s work.
Lenny spent years in corporate consulting for Big Food. Shalva was a corporate trainer. Then the Vitamix changed both of their lives โ and they saw something upsetting: the best kitchen tool most people own is the one most people aren’t really using.
They started Blending For Good to close that gap. Everything since has been about one thing: the distance between owning a Vitamix and actually living differently because of it.
They’re based in Minneapolis. Three kids. Shalva creates every recipe. Lenny does everything else. The business is small on purpose.

Know someone who just got a Vitamix?
This is the thing to get them. A new Vitamix is an exciting purchase and an easy one to underuse. Give them Blending For Good and they’ll actually get what they paid for.
“So glad I found you”
“Creativity in my kitchen at a new level.”
“Freshly inspired.”
“Taught me so much.”

FAQ
Quick question before I begin…
Yes. And because of Blending For Good, it’ll be the most-used thing in your home. So get the best one you can afford.
In all likelihood, yes. Any Vitamix model purchased as new in the last 25 years will work. Though you may want a 48-ounce container if you do not have one already.
About 10 minutes a day once you have the hang of it. Jumpstart walks you through getting there.
That’s what the 7-day free trial is for. If you go through the first week with our Introductory Program Jumpstart and don’t have what you need to succeed, cancel.
Yes. No calls, no retention loops, no guilt. Cancel from your account settings in about 30 seconds.
We don’t use the word vegan because it carries baggage. Everything is plant-based โ real, whole ingredients that people across the dietary spectrum love. The recipes are designed to please people of good taste. We’re not asking you to give anything up. Many of the recipes are good starting places to add whatever protein you want.
Nah. Recipes are the least interesting part of what we do. We teach you how to think about your Vitamix so you always know what to make. The recipes are how you practice it.
That’s what Jumpstart is designed to solve. Instead of handing you 200 recipes and wishing you luck, Shalva walks you through one technique per day for 7 days, then checks in weekly for 30 days. By the time you finish, you have habits โ not just recipes.

One of our most common stories involves a skeptical spouse who ends up using the Vitamix more than the person who signed up. The cashew queso alone has converted more meat-and-potatoes families than we can count.
Questions about the food…
Sometimes! We’re 100% plant based and in most cases, you can make them WFPB SOS-Free. But I should say, one of our most popular recipes among people of all diets, our Creamy Wild Rice Soup is WFPB.
In most cases, yes. And if not, they’re usually substitutable.
We have several allergy-friendly recipes for nut-free situations. But many of our recipes use tree nuts, unfortunately. Let us know if you’d like help with a substitute โ we’re all about inclusion here.
