Carrot Cake Smoothie
Carrot Cake Smoothie
Serves 1
Are you ready to wake up your taste buds? You are in for a treat! Carrot cake is by far Mel S.'s favorite dessert. (Also, it has carrots in it, so it's totally healthy - right?!) The sweet and spicy flavors of carrot cake bring us back to a birthday or a celebratory dinner. So we created this smoothie to replicate the flavors. Only this version of carrot cake is packed with protein, healthy fats, and anti-inflammatory spices!
