PINEAPPLE, ORANGE, GRANOLA AND CARROT SMOOTHIE



Pineapple, Orange, Granola and Carrot Smoothie image

I never thought about adding vegetables to smoothies until I tasted a lunchtime smoothie my sister made that included spinach, pear and walnuts. These are ingredients I like in a salad, and they work well together after taking a trip through the blender - especially with fresh ginger added to the mix. With that, I broadened my horizons and explored fruit and vegetable smoothies. I'd picked several pounds of oranges from a friend's tree, so I used fresh orange juice as the liquid, and for each drink I combined one or two fruits with a vegetable. I was thinking the smoothies would make great snacks, but in fact these make satisfying meals. They're packed with vitamins, especially C and A, beta carotene, and antioxidant-rich flavonoids. A small amount of granola contributes great texture to this tangy smoothie. I prefer the thick version without the ice cubes, but that's a matter of taste. Pineapple is an excellent source of manganese and contains an enzyme called bromelain that aids digestion.

1/2 cup pineapple chunk
1 cup soymilk (vanilla or regular)
1 carrot, peeled and sliced
1/3 cup pineapple juice
honey

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth.

Tips:

  • Select ripe and fresh carrots. Look for carrots that are firm and have a deep orange color. Avoid carrots that are limp or have blemishes.
  • Use frozen pineapple. Frozen pineapple is a great way to add sweetness and tanginess to your smoothie without watering it down. You can also use fresh pineapple, but be sure to freeze it first.
  • Add a scoop of protein powder. Protein powder can help to boost the nutritional value of your smoothie and make it more filling. Look for a protein powder that is made from high-quality ingredients and is low in sugar.
  • Sweeten your smoothie with honey or maple syrup. If you find that your smoothie is too tart, you can sweeten it with honey or maple syrup. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Serve your smoothie immediately. Smoothies are best enjoyed fresh. If you need to store your smoothie, be sure to drink it within 24 hours.
