My youngest daughter despises carrots. She also dislikes green beans and several other vegetables. I thought that I could disguise the vegetables somehow. A smoothie was my best option. Since it’s time to go grocery shopping, the options were limited. Was it going to be a green bean smoothie day? Today was not the day for the green beans.
I used a can of pineapple juice, half a bag of frozen carrots, a banana and maybe 10 oz. of cranberry juice. This time I used the cran-cherry juice.
She loved it so much that she asked for a second glass. I feel like a better than average mom and also a little sneaky. It was totally worth it to get some vegetables into her diet.
There are more recipes for carrot smoothies here. I also borrowed the photo from this site.
