Thirsty Thursdays: Carrot Cake Smoothie

This is a delicious smoothie and It really tastes like carrot cake! In fact, it reminds me, slightly, of the best frozen yogurt mix-in from Angora that we used to order in Boston to be delivered to our front door. Yes, free delivery of frozen yogurt of which I very rarely strayed from the carrot cake mix-in, although cinnamon and blueberries was a close second choice. Oh, those were the days of late nights and delivery service! Anyway, back to this healthy carrot cake smoothie. I can't wait for you to try it and tell me what you think! One note, if your banana isn’t frozen, add a handful of ice.
