Try this Carrot Pineapple Banana Smoothie for a delicious way to sneak some vegetables into breakfast!
In my quest to overhaul my overall health, I’ve made quite a few changes in my life. These changes have surprised everyone who knows me well, but no one is more surprised about the changes than me!
I’ll be sharing more about the changes down the road, but today I want to tell you about an incredible new smoothie I’ve been making. I call it my Sunrise Carrot Pineapple Banana Smoothie. It’s like sunshine in a glass!
I’ve always liked pineapples, although I rarely eat them. But until recently, I wouldn’t touch carrots with a 10-foot pole.
Not only do I like them now – I love them in this smoothie!
Carrot Pineapple Banana Smoothie
INGREDIENTS:
- 1/2 cup chopped frozen pineapple
- 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/3 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup chopped carrot
- 1 frozen banana
INSTRUCTIONS:
I like to make smoothies with frozen fruit. They make the smoothie thicker and there is no need to use the ice which can water your smoothie down.
I buy a bag of frozen pineapple at the store, but you could use fresh and cut it into chunks then freeze them. You can freeze the carrots too, but I don’t.
Remove the peel from bananas and cut into slices. Place on a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze for 24 hours.
Combine all ingredients in a blender.
Blend until smooth and frothy.

Looks great. I think you’d be surprised at how good baby carrots dipped in hummus are. Try them!
Hi Angie,
Does this work with pineapple juice? I don’t like the texture of pineapple. Do you add protein powder too this smoothie? I need add more veggies to my diet too. Thanks for sharing.
Smoothie sounds delicious! I’m going to give it a try. Thanks for the recipe.
I’ve been thinking of adding more smoothies to my daily eating habits, they’re delicious and we can make them super healthy too, right? I can’t wait to try this option, looks so good! Thanks for the recipe =)
