Carrot Pineapple Smoothie

Carrot Pineapple Smoothie

Fresh pineapple, banana, carrot, and orange juice blended with ice. Bright, tropical, and surprisingly creamy — a great way to get vegetables in at breakfast.

Prep: 5 min Cook: 0 min Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups chopped fresh pineapple
  • 1 cup ice
  • 2/3 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1/2 cup chopped carrot
  • 1 banana

Instructions

  1. Place the pineapple, ice, orange juice, chopped carrot, and banana in a blender.
  2. Blend until smooth and frothy.
  3. Pour and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Carrot: Chop the carrot into small pieces so the blender can process it fully without straining the motor.
  • Frozen banana: If you freeze the banana first, you can reduce or skip the ice and get a creamier result.
  • Fresh pineapple: Fresh pineapple gives a much brighter flavour than canned. If using canned, drain well.
  • Ginger: A small piece of fresh ginger (about 1/2 inch) blended in adds a lovely warmth.
