5 Minute Raw Carrot + Fresh Ginger Smoothie
This energizing ginger carrot smoothie is packed with nutrient-dense, anti-inflammatory ingredients like raw carrot, fresh ginger and a whole orange plus warming spices so it’s enjoyable even on a cold day.
Equipment
- High Speed Blender
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk or your fave nut-free option
- 1 medium carrot scrubbed and chopped, about ¾ cup (175 mL)
- 1 orange peel + pith removed, reserve a strip or two of peel!
- ½ inch slice fresh ginger peeled, about 2 tsp (10 mL) chopped
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- pinch nutmeg
- maple syrup or date to taste, optional
Instructions
- Place the almond milk, carrot, ginger, orange, orange peel, cinnamon, nutmeg and maple syrup (if using) in a high speed blender and blend on high until fully blended, about 1 minute.
- Because we're using whole carrot, the smoothie will be a bit grainy...but that is good-for-you fibre!!
