Banana, Carrots & Pumpkin Smoothie


Many of you may know by now that I'm a Smoothie kindda girl!!! Why? Because its delicious, nutritious , and easy to make. Additionally, its a convenient way to get all the nutrients that is needed to start your day!! My fav is the berry and banana , this morning I was all out of frozen berries , so I raided my fridge to see what will go well with bananas. I got carrots and pumpkin, this was my first attempt to make this smoothie . But what the heck!!! When life gives you lemons , what do we do? Make lemonade!!! Same principle applies in this case , I made a Banana, Carrots & Pumpkin smoothie.

It was really good, to be honest guys I feel a small sense of accomplishment when I feed my body something that I know will benefit my all round health. Again, we just need to pay a little more attention of what we are consuming.

Here's what you'll need:


  1. 2 ripe bananas 
  2. 1/2  cup of cubed pumpkins (uncooked)
  3. 1/2  cup of carrots (uncooked)
  4. 1 1/2 cups of low fat milk 
  5. 4 tbsp of rolled oats 
  6. a dash of Angostura bitters 
  7. a dash of cinnamon
Let me know what other variations of Smoothies you guys make .

    Sounds like a good way to trick yourself into eating more veggies! I would add chia seeds/flax seeds for an extra boost of nutrients :)

    I'm not a smoothie person, especially for breakfast, however, this does look very appealing and moreso, I would love my kids to become fans of this healthy meal option . BTW, can you suggest a few quick and easy savoury breakfast choices? Looking forward to those.
