The Beet’s Plant-Based Diet Recipe: Orange Carrot Smoothie for Breakfast
Why This Orange Carrot Smoothie is Healthy:
Ginger is an anti-inflammatory and the flavor enhances everything it gets paired with, so combine it with other antioxidant-rich foods like oranges and mangos.
Why It Works for Weight Loss:
Orange and mango are packed with vitamin C and combined they have 173 milligrams of vitamin C. This smoothie is packed with protein and fiber from the chia seeds, flax seeds and protein powder.
