Carrot Tropical Smoothie

This smoothie looked interesting so I decided to try it. At first, I was skeptical because it contained carrot juice but it ended up being delicious! It's a wonderful way to get fruits and veggies you need!

Side note: I took it to work one day. Some students asked me what was in it. When I said carrot juice, they all gave me a look of disgust. (They had thought it looked good until I told them carrot juice.)

Stars of the recipe:

  • 1/2 c. carrot juice, either juice it yourself or get a brand like Bolthouse Farms

  • 1/2 c. orange juice

  • 3/4 c. frozen mango

  • 3/4 c. frozen pineapple

  • juice of 1/2 of a lime (Stick in microwave for 10 seconds before juicing it. That maximizes the amount of juice you get.)

  • If you want to you, you could add nonfat Greek yogurt for added protein. I haven't tried it yet but I bet it would be delicious.


Steps:

  1. Put all of the ingredients in your blender.

  2. Blend away until desired consistency. If need be, add water if it doesn't blend.

  3. Enjoy!
