Carrots bring beta-carotene for eye health, and oats plus walnuts make it hearty enough for a real breakfast.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Blend the milk and chopped carrot first until the carrot is completely smooth — this takes a good minute.
  2. Add the banana, oats, walnuts, yogurt, cinnamon, and ginger.
  3. Blend again until creamy.
  4. Pour into two glasses and top with an extra sprinkle of cinnamon.

Tips

  • A high-speed blender makes the smoothest carrot texture. If yours is weaker, grate the carrot first.
