Every once in a while, a new cooking tool will come along and claim valuable real estate on the kitchen counter.
But how many people do you know who are actually using a juicer or panini press on a regular basis? As overrated as some equipment is, there’s also the ones that have withstood the test of time — and blenders definitely fall into that camp.
Yes, blenders can absolutely be used to make smoothies (saving you $10 a trip to the smoothie shop), but there’s way more you can do with them. You can use a blender to make pesto, hummus, soups, and even your own homemade nut milk. Or hey, you can just use it for margaritas and call it a day — that works too.
Rounded up here are 9 blenders to consider, all available at Walmart — and, with two exceptions, they’re all less than $100. Whether you want all the bells and whistles or one that’s small and simple, there’s one out there for you.
