    DOLE/HHL "Smoothietude!" Contest & Giveaway! Entry Details.


    A few days ago, I hinted at a big announcement. Well here it is.. In the spirit of 365 Vegan Smoothies, I am happy to announce my DOLE Bananas & DOLE Salads “Show Me Your Smoothietude” Contest & Giveaway! $2000 in prizes to be awarded.

    Prizes: (3) $449 Vitamix’s will be given away, (2) $150 Smoothie Lover Kits, (6) 365 Vegan Smoothies books & an HHL tee! (whew!)

    All you have to do is -> Show me your smoothietude! ….. So what is smoothietude? To me it is.. Love, excitement and enthusiasm for smoothies. And how smoothies make their way into your daily routine to mingle with your mood, personality and culinary cravings.

    You may remember my DOLE-sponsored “Show Me Your Salad-tude Contest” .. well this is like that, only with smoothies. And Vitamixes. 🙂 Entry details + see my example entries for the contest..

    All for the love of smoothies…

    Showing off my #smoothietude (contest entry examples)..

    I like my bananas speckled for making smoothies. DOLE calls these “cheetah” bananas!..

    Of course they are oh-so-pretty like this too..

    About the prize-sponsor: Thank you to DOLE Bananas and DOLE Salads for contributing this generous array of prizes! DOLE Bananas: Peel the Love – Bananas make every smoothie so much better. I always have a giant bowl of frozen bananas in my freezer and a few ripening bananas in my fruit bowl as well. The motto in my house: you can never have too many bananas.

    DOLE salads can also find a way into your smoothie blends via one of my faves: green smoothies! (And sidenote: be sure to check out DOLE Salad’s Taste of Spain summer contest going on now too….)
