Apple Carrot Banana Smoothie

I've been making smoothies with soy, nuts and freshly juiced fruits & veggies for the past 2 months to have after my workout. Today I juiced some carrots and apples and threw them into a smoothie with some mixed nuts and a packet of powered greens (we're out of soy milk) . It tasted great but it was a bit of a challenge when the blender broke before I could combine everything. I ended up having to use a hand mixer to blend the chopped nuts and bananas together.

I usually try to save the pulp from the juicing to add into meals during the week

Maybe I'll add this carrot to some pasta later this week.

  1. Apples and Carrots are great together! I drink fresh carrot and apple juice in the morning (when there's time) and in the evenings. I'm not sure if you've ever tried to juice raw corn but is great! it adds sweetness almost like a banana. get fresh white corn on the cobb...de-cobb it into a bowl and juice!
