Tips:

• Feel free to adjust the amount of carrots to your preference. For a more subtle carrot flavor, use ¾ cup.
• For a thicker smoothie, use less water or add a frozen banana.
• Don't have fresh pineapple? Use ½ cup frozen pineapple chunks.
• For a creamier texture, add a scoop of plain yogurt or cottage cheese.
• This smoothie can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, but the flavor and texture are best enjoyed fresh.
