Your Daily Dish: Apple, Carrot and Ginger Smoothie

Take a bigger bite out of life! Every day is a holiday with BiteMeMore.com.

Today is “Winner” Charlie Sheen’s birthday. Instead of raising a cocktail to him, we think this notorious bad boy would do himself a big favor by toasting himself with this vitamin-packed apple, carrot and ginger smoothie, a perfect comb0 of the sweet and slightly spicy.

Ingredients

½ cup apple juice
2 large carrots, peeled and chopped
¼ cup applesauce
¼ tsp finely grated fresh ginger
1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp kosher salt
4-6 ice cubes

Directions

Place apple juice, carrots, applesauce, ginger, cinnamon, salt and ice cubes in a blender. Blend for 30-60 seconds until well combined. Pour into a tall glass and serve immediately.

Serves 1

Another great (and healthier) way to celebrate a birthday is with this lightened-up Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Icing.

Whether it’s cruising the aisles at the Dollar Store or experimenting at the stove, we believe that every day can be a holiday.
