For quick, ultra-creamy shakes and smoothies that are pretty impossible to mess up, consider a personal size blender that comes with to-go cups. One of our favorites is the Ninja Nutri-Blender Pro, which Lance Bass says is the “easiest, smoothest” blender he’s ever used, and it’s currently just $60 at Amazon, Target, Best Buy, and ninja.com. (Fitness writer Jeremy Rellosa uses it for all his protein shakes, too.)
Powerful, compact, and dishwasher-safe, the blender comes with two 24 oz. to-go cups and spout lids, and it doesn’t overcomplicate things with too many settings. The two “Auto-iQ” preset programs — one for smoothies and one for crushed ice — get the job done exceptionally well.
