OK... Finally got round to making the smoothie last night. Went to make it originally and found my Carrots all gooey :-s Bought some new ones last night though so here's a quick update on how it turned out

Really easy to make wouldn't call it a smoothie though, definitly a juice. Very orange lol and tastes delicious. I found it to be very filling so 1 portion did the trick, sometimes 1 portion just isn't enough! Been hunting and i've found a cool website with more info on the benefits of carrot juice (which include Vit D, C and Potassium) and loads of recipes. Take a look at http://www.carrotjuice.com/ and see what you think. If you try any recipes from the site or this one let me and others know what you think :-)


OK be back soon with some more antics of the kitchen vaiety, i'm off to go buy cake :-)

Hello. OK no pics as yet because my camera is broke but going to be trying a new smoothie recipe out soon. I'll let you know how we get on after we've tasted it. The recipe is fairly simple:

Carrot, Apple and Ginger Smoothie

Makes 1 serving:

3 Carrots
2 Apples
Chunk of Ginger (1-2cm)

- Scrub, top and tail the Carrots
- Put the Carrots and Apples through the juicer
- Mix the juice in a jug
- Peel and finely grate the ginger and stir into the jug
- Serve and Enjoy

We couldn't find any fresh ginger at the shops so we bought some ground ginger. Suppose it saves us grating it. Let you know what it tastes like later :-)
