Carrot Tops Smoothie
Servings: 1
We are lovers of all things leafy green— even carrot greens! This extremely creamy Carrot Tops Smoothie wastes nothing by using the entire carrot. A lovely, sweet smoothie with mango, pineapple, banana and carrot tastes more like dessert yet is loaded with leafy greens.
Equipment
Ingredients
- ¾ cup spinach
- 1 carrot include carrot tops
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup pineapple frozen
- ½ cup mango frozen
- ½ banana
Instructions

Notes
- You can grate your carrots with a cheese grater, or steam them to soften them before blending if you aren't using a high-speed blender.
