This started out as a way to hide a carrot in a smoothie, but ended up being more about the carrot with fruit hidden inside! If you'd like to add ice, go ahead. I didn't and it came out fine.

I knew that the spice amounts would be too much for me (personal preference) so I literally cut them in half and those flavors still were prominent. Cinnamon allspice and ginger are very strong spices so I'd recommend that you start out modestly and then add more if necessary because once they're in there you can't take them out. I didn't use any frozen fruit so I did add ice I like my smoothies thick. This is one of those "outside-the-box" smoothies and I like the fact that it's not loaded with additional sweeteners the fruit takes care of that. Read More

I added the full amounts for the spices but it was too much for me. I recommend doing at least half the spices. I also substituted milk instead of soy milk. Overall this was a good recipe. Read More

Whoa this is a little strange. It was kind of more like carrot cake batter than carrot cake. The spices even turn it that dark batter color. I really liked though how healthy it is with the cinnamon ginger carrots and fruit. I only had frozen fruit so I had to use an additional 1/2 cup non dairy milk. I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk. Read More
