NOTES & TIPS

(1) Carrots. About 7 ounces weight. Carrots are blended raw and should not be cooked.
(2) Pineapples. About 5 ounces weight. They can be fresh or frozen.
(3) Orange Juice. Use bottled orange juice or juice from a freshly squeezed orange.
(4) Make Ahead. To save time in the mornings, assemble ingredients except for water in the blender cup the night before, cover and refrigerate. In the morning, add water and blend. It makes for a fast and hassle-free breakfast. Personally, I have purchased additional Nutribullet blender cups so that I can assemble multiple daysโ€™ worth of smoothies at a time.
(5) Serving. Serve immediately, optionally with ice. Pair with other breakfast fare like crustless quiche or smoked salmon scrambled eggs.
(6) Add-Ons. For a more filling smoothie, blend in extra ingredients like rolled oats, chia seeds, flax seeds, and/or nut butters.

Can these ingredients excluding the water all be portioned and frozen? Easy meal prep for me?

Hi, this smoothie sounds delicious. I am having bariatric sleeve surgery and looking for easy healthy smoothies and this sounds perfect.

I only have one question. Do you cook carrots before blending?

Thank You?

Hi Judi, the carrots are raw, not cooked before blending. Let me know if you have other questions!

I have used raw carrots in smoothies, but I prefer to cook them, to make them a bit easier to blend. Of course, it you have some sort of super duper blender, it may blend the raw carrots just fine.

Can you substitute yogurt for banana. I’m not a fan of banana’s.

Yes, that would work. The smoothie will be a little thin without banana, but the yogurt will help thicken it.
