Carrot Cake Smoothie

Heard someone mention this on Twitter, not sure if anything similar...they didnt post recipe, probably keeping this gem for themselves,  so I decided to take it on for myself and figure it out and figure it out I did...not to bad!!

Carrot Cake Smoothie

  • 2 cups cooked carrots, cooled than Frozen (organic of course..)
  • 6-8 ounces Almond milk (I used unsweetened Vanilla)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla (can omit if using the flavored milk but still is great)
  • smidgen of nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon orange zest
  • Optional: L-Glutamine or Whey Protein or a few pecans or walnuts for nutty flavor.

The hard part..

  1. Cook carrots until soft and easy to break apart, then cool and freeze.
  2. Put ALL into blender or if your lucky a Vitamix..and blend away.
  3. Drink up!
