Does it work with hot meals? To puree a recently cooked veggie soup for example.

I have steamed apples in the microwave & then thrown them in this to make applesauce. That worked great.

Yes, it works great on hot items. I have used it with various soup recipes with great success! I love this little machine!

I haven't done it but I see no reason not to. You may have to adjust your timing and add veggies last sine they take less time to cook. Hope it will wok out for you

Hi Betty, I think it would purée things like chicken, fish or hamburger, but I'm not sure how well it would do on things like steak or lamb (chunks of meat). It comes with three sizes and I'm pretty sure you'd have success with at least one, if not all. Good luck. Cece

I have this blender and it works amazing. Just use a little water or use a push stick like the vitamax. It fits with the waring, If you want it to blend a little faster. Those are common rules everyone knows when blending. And any blender makes hot soup if you leave it on long enough haha. No seriously just make a regular soup then heat it up on the stove.

Although I have not tried this, I believe it's entirely possible! I have cooked chicken, fish, vegetables and made meals for three adults using this skillet. I love it!! It saves me much time and cleaning -up.

I cooked raw proteins like fish and chicken on it and it works great. I had asparagus cooking at the same time for a full meal and it was delicious.

We have not tested these meals for microwave preparation. However, several of the soups would work quite easily, though you'll need to reduce the water since it won't be boiling. Some of the meals have potatoes and beans that would not soften up through a microwave so those would not be a great option for your situation.

It will cook the egg, resembling scrambled eggs in your soup. I tried it in oatmeal once, didn't like the result. I only use it for protein shakes.

To be honest I have only used it to blend oatmeal, bananas, peanut butter and milk, so I can't really say how it would handle those veggies. If those veggies were in water or chicken stock I bet they would blend fine.

Yes it will, that is primarily what I use mine for. Cans of Progresso soup work perfectly, it heats it up and keeps it hot. Now it isn't fast, but it will work. When I get to work I get mine going and its good by lunch. A very handy little device.

I don't think it suggests cooking meats. It only steams about 14 to 17 minutes depending on how much water you put in it. It could purée cooked meats that are cut up small.

I don't know as I've never tried to make hot soup but it answers that question in the recipe book that comes with the mixer, I think. One recipe I saw says to mix the ingredients after cooking until the veggies are tender in small batches and transferring to another pot.

Yes I believe so.... It works really well when your cooking with it. You just can't add it to your meal after our meal is done. You will have salt crystals. I hope this helps.

hello heather, the best solution is a immersion blender. you can puree in seconds and you can look at the puree as you are doing it to see if it is pureed to your desired consistency.less clean up than a food processor or blender. you can puree in the vessel you cooked the vegetable in. do not buy a cheap model. i would suggest a bamix, braun. or kitchenaid.search at amazon under "immersion blender". the kitchenaid with chopper looks good. it is $99. i have not personally used it.the reviews are encouraging. do your homework. read the reviews. make sure the shaft is all stainless. shaft. i have a excellent braun mr5550mbc it retails for $299. ouch! i did not pay that much. i am not sure why the price is so high. you can use it for many healthy snacks for children fruit smoothees etc. wonderful for making soups. i also have a food processor but find the immersion blender a better choice for puree. ace

it purees very well! you won't be disappointed. I was skeptic in the beginning, but once I started, couldn't stop...lol. Remember to puree cooked veggies and fruits that are not too hard though.

yes if it is just broth. If it is chunky then don't waste your time. the chunks stick to the heating element and you end up with a burnt tasting soup and good luck trying to clean it

I've only used the chopping function once to make the soup recipe that it came with.... and that was a few months ago. What I recall, it was like a runny salsa. Sorry I can't be more help.
