Smoothie O’ the Day:: Apples and Oranges
Since the discovery that my sugar is a bit wonky, I have, at the advice of my most excellent midwife and second mother, taken to snacking in between {much smaller} meals. This has proved a perfect opportunity to play with smoothies again. 🙂 You can do the same, or add this to your repertoire for a juice fast. It is thick, creamy and delicious. And it utilizes my two fave juicing/smoothie ingredients – avocado and Granny Smith apples. Avocado is amazing for waking up the brain. Never fails.
Apples and Oranges Smoothie::
- 2 large Granny Smith apples
- 2 oranges (Valencias are perfect), peel one
- 5 carrots
- 2 avocados
Juice the apples, oranges and carrots. Scoop the avocados into the blender with the juice and liquify. Serve with an orange wedge. Enjoy! Makes about one quart of smoothie goodness.
Enjoy!

I will be the only one drinking these smoothies. How long will they keep in the fridge?

You can probably keep it in a nice cold fridge for a couple of days. It may separate, so give it a good shake if you need to. This makes two tall glasses, just like all of my other recipes.
