The method for this carrot and turmeric smoothie is simple. Chuck all ingredients into a high-speed blender and whizz it up! I use a Nutribullet and I have to say it is a star when it comes to making smoothies.

Polish things off with any nuts and dried berries (I love gogi berries) that you have around. There is no need to shave down a carrot for presentation as I have. That really was just going right over the top!

Yes, yes yes! This carrot and turmeric smoothie is a great way to start your day. It is packed with nutrients, anti-oxidents and vitamins. If you really feel like you want to add sweetness then add a little honey or maple syrup. Personally I think this carrot smoothie is just perfect as it is.
