Hot Pink Breakfast Smoothie Recipe

This is a new smoothie recipe that I tried this morning from Greeensmoothiegirl. com

If you have a big blender you can use this full recipe, I have a Tribest personal blender, so I halve the recipe except the coconut water, I ended up needing about 10 oz.

I had never had coconut water before today, and I was nervous because I don't like coconut anything!! I was sooooo pleasantly surprised by this. It's really refreshing, no coconut flavor, just very slightly sweet and refreshing water.

This recipe is available on the Internet by searching Hot Pink Breakfast Smoothie. I just wanted to print it here to encourage you to try it.

1 1/2 young Thai Coconut juice, some recipes call it Coconut Water
1 large carrot cleaned and cut into pieces (I peel mine, but not necessary)
1/2 of a med raw beet peeled
1/4 c. of cashews
1/4 c. of chopped dates (I didn't have these on hand so went without)
2 tsp of vanilla (I used less)
12 frozen strawberries
opt. 1-2 tbs hemp protein powder
opt 2 tbs kefir or yogurt (I didn't use any yogurt, but might try it tomorrow.)

I was inspired when I saw a picture on Greensmoothiegirl.com of two little girls in their stroller sipping on hot pink smoothies. So cute!!! Knew I had to try this one. Kids and smoothies, the best fast food ever.
