Carrot Cucumber Strawberry Smoothie
I have been having so much fun making new smoothies, I’m sure you guys can tell from all the recent recipes 🙂 But, I figure if I find a combo that tastes great, you guys would want to know about it too! My most recent creation includes carrots, cucumbers, bananas, strawberries and Juice Plus+ Complete Shake Mix.
Cucumbers and baby carrots are actually “sweet” vegetables, this combo turned out very refreshing 🙂
Here are some of the health benefits to the ingredients in this smoothie recipe:
Carrots – The orange powerfood will give you vitamin A and is also linked to preventing cancer, giving you healthier looking skin and aids in digestion.
Cucumbers – These are great for rehydration. Cucumbers are also a great source of vitamin B, so that means they are a natural pick-me-up.
Strawberries – These red beauties are loaded with vitamins, fiber, and potassium. As an added benefit – they are fat-free 🙂
Bananas – Besides tasting great, they are loaded with potassium which helps muscles recover and relax, and they have also been known to help you sleep better.
Protein Powder – Helps keep you full longer and makes your smoothie extra creamy.
You can find the ingredients for this recipe fresh and at a good price by checking the current Publix ad.
