Sometimes you just crave carrots.
No?
Just me?
Well, recently I was crazing carrots as well as something sweet. I thought I’d eat some carrots and a side of raw yogurt with honey. And then I thought, duh – carrot cake. But who wants to go through the trouble of making an entire carrot cake for one little craving?
I’ve actually found that turning whatever you’re craving into a smoothie works out really well. It’s way easier than making the whole dessert and it’s healthy (if you do it right). Want chocolate cake? Make a chocolate smoothie. Want blueberry pie? Turn it into a smoothie. Want carrot cake? Make this.
And wondering what’s so superfood-y about it? Carrots are a great source of vitamin C as well as potassium. They also help expel excess estrogen from the body (which can help prevent cancer). The egg yolks are a multivitamin rich in A, E, D and K as well as choline. And the gelatin heals and seal gut lining, firms skin, reduces cellulite and wrinkles while strengthening bones, joints and cartilage.
