Spiced Carrot Cake Smoothie

This month for Taste and Create, I was partnered with The Teenage Taste.  She had several recipes that caught my eye but I decided to go for a smoothie! We've been eating a lot of smoothies and this one sounded new to me.

This was so good!  We kept our carrots still pretty firm so you could feel carrot pieces in the smoothie. If you cooked them completely until soft, you probably wouldn't even notice them in there at all. 

Spiced Carrot Cake Smoothie
Recipe from The Teenage Taste

1/2 banana, sliced and frozen
1/2 cup pineapple, cubed and frozen
1/2 cup steamed carrots, cooled
1/2 cup greek yogurt
1/4 cup milk
2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tbsp. granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
pinch of salt
garnish with extra cinnamon and coconut

Place all ingredients in a blender.  Blend until smooth and creamy. Pour into a glass and enjoy.
