Orange Creamsicle Smoothie

Orange Creamsicle Smoothie with French Vanilla Carnation Instant Breakfast

1 1/2 cup of carrot juice (I used about 12 carrots with my Omega juicer)
1 whole orange, peeled
1 packet of French Vanilla Carnation Instant Breakfast powder
2 tablespoons of vanilla yogurt
3 cubes of ice
1 tablespoon of grounded flax seed meal (optional)
1 tablespoon of flax seed oil (optional)

  1. Blend all ingredients (With my Vitamix blender, I turned it on at low speed, then switched to high for about 10-15 seconds)
  2. Makes 3 cups
My mom is an extremely picky eater and while it'd be better for her to drink one whole packet of carnation instant breakfast, I don't think she could stomach it. So my goal is to give it to her everyday so that even if she drinks a third or half of the packet's worth, she'll still be getting more nutrients than she usually does.
