My 4yo seems to be on the verge of another cold. I have quite literally lost count of how many that is since September. We have battled an immense amount of illness. I have touched on that topic in an earlier post. I won’t relist everything, just think everything from croup to the flu (twice!) Sigh.
This morning’s smoothie was filled with extra vitamin C and antioxidants. We could all use a little extra boost this weekend.
I used my Vitamix. Which if you do not have one, I highly recommend getting one. It has changed my life. CHANGED MY LIFE!
Full disclosure, I do not always exactly measure my smoothie ingredients. They are always yummy though! I have a knack for smoothie making. I also make my portions large enough for 3 people. I have a glass. Jackson has a glass. My husband has a glass.
In this smoothie
- 2 medium oranges
- 1 large blood orange
- Pineapple. I used a generous amount.
- Blueberries. Almost a whole pint.
- 1 very large carrot
- Ice, as much as I could fit
I throw it all in the Vitamix and set it on the smoothie setting. Voila! That easy and simple. A delicious start to the day for 3 people.
Looks yumm and super healthy. I must try!
It is refreshing! I made it again this morning because my little man definitely has a full on cold. Hope you enjoy it!
Thanks for sharing at the link up! This looks so pretty!! I am SO envious of your vitamix- I have a ninja right now with major vitamix inspirations.
