NOTES & TIPS

(1) Carrots. 10 ounces refers to weight, equivalent to about 2 cups of baby-cut carrots. Carrots are blended raw and should not be cooked.

(2) Mango / Pineapple / Strawberries. 4 ounces refers to weight, equivalent to about 2/3 cup.

(3) Oats. I use Quaker’s old-fashioned rolled oats.

(4) Make Ahead. To save time in the mornings, assemble ingredients except for water in the blender cup(s) the night before, cover and refrigerate. In the morning, add water and blend. Personally, I have purchased additional Nutribullet blender cups so that I can assemble three days’ worth of smoothies at a time. Another benefit to making them ahead of time is that it gives the frozen fruit time to defrost. This makes it easier to blend these ingredients into a smooth drink, especially if you don’t have a powerful blender.

(5) Serving. Serve immediately while fresh and chilled. Pair with other breakfast fare such as lemon poppy seed scones, savory egg bites, or banana nut almond flour muffins.

Do you boil the carrots

Julia

No, they should be kept raw.

Véronique

Just made this and 10 ounces of carrots is a lot more than 2 cups. The carrot taste is overpowering so next time I’ll put less so I can taste the fruits. Love the color too!

The recipe states baby carrots… sounds like you used regular carrots and that’s why it was more than 2 cups? If the carrot taste is too strong for you, definitely add less next time and/or add more fruit. Hope you give it a try again!

I love the fun orange color! Something different than the typical green. I definitely need to make it for my kids!
