This carrot cake smoothie has all the familiar goodness!
All the same flavors, wrapped up into a refreshing morning drink or afternoon snack. I recently made these blueberry muffin smoothies (which are totally my new fave and you need to give them a try). This time I went with a little spring flavor. Who doesn't like carrot cake, the classic spring dessert?
I use my trusty Blendtec for all my smoothie making. It's my best bud in the kitchen. Use it pretty much everyday. I love adding fresh veggies to my smoothies. Such vibrant flavors! I also used a frozen banana to add some creaminess, along with cultured coconut milk yogurt. A dash of cinnamon, a pinch of nutmeg. Dessert for breakfast just got a whole lot healthier and sweeter!
