Carrot Banana Orange Smoothie /Carrot Smoothie



I was totally clueless for today's smoothie recipe and decided to make smoothie bowl.But I was running out of some of the ingredients and finally ended up in making this smoothie.

I often make carrot juice for my kids as they like it and its a nice way to include carrots in their diet.While making this juice I got the idea of making smoothie along with some frozen banana.The smoothie came out so delicious and creamy,kids liked it a lot.Also the use of fresh orange juice makes this smoothie so tasty and refreshing.
