Tropical Turmeric Smoothie (or Smoothie Bowl)
Sweet
with pineapple and mango, turmeric and ginger bring even more tropical
essence to your cup or bowl. Sweet enough to sip post work out, I love
to pour the frosty concoction into a bowl and top with my favorite
smoothie bowl goodies - banana, goji berry, granola and a sprinkle of
coconut - for a sunny start to my morning.
1/2 cup coconut water
1/2 cup frozen mango chunks
1/2 cup frozen pineapple chunks or tidbits
1/4 cup frozen banana
1-inch turmeric root, peeled and chopped (organic if possible)
1 1-inch slice ginger root, peeled and chopped (organic if possible)
1/2 medium carrot chopped
1/8 tsp ground pepper (2 good grinds from your grinder)
Place
all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth, adding
additional coconut water if concoction is too thick to blend. Pour into
a cup to sip, or pour into a bowl and top with your favorite smoothie
bowl toppings.
Makes 1 smoothie or two medium bowls.
