Carrot Orange Smoothie!

Remember those delish orange creamsicle pops? Well you're in for a treat if you like those, because this smoothie loaded with vitamin A and C!

Did you know that carrots are an excellent source of antioxidants, and the richest vegetable source of the pro-vitamin A carotenes. Carrots antioxidants help protect against cardiovascular disease and cancer and also promote good vision, especially night vision. Pretty awesome huh?

This was super easy to make and turned out great! The kids sucked a glass right down as well, which is always a plus.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Rip up 1/4 of your orange peel and add it into your blender or processor. Add in 2 cups of carrots, half the orange, one scoop of vanilla cream whey protein, 1 cup of orange juice and 1.5 cups of ice, blend together, add more juice if needed.
  2. Drink fresh and enjoy!
This makes 4, 1 cup servings. Serving size below is per 1 cup.
