Sweet Potato Citrus Smoothie

Prep Time 0 minutes
Cook Time 0 minutes
Servings 1

Ingredients

  • ½ cup mashed sweet potato (or about ½ sweet potato)
  • 1 orange, peeled
  • 2 tbsp walnuts (or any nut/seed or nut/seed butter)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • ½ inch knob ginger
  • 1 cup water
  • Maple syrup or dates (optional to increase sweetness)

Items you can prep ahead (optional)

  • Roast the sweet potato

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend until smooth. Taste and if you want it a bit sweeter, add a dash of maple syrup or a couple of dates.

Notes

Substitutions

  • If you don’t have roasted sweet potato on hand, you can substitute pumpkin puree
  • Use any nut or seed you like - they add a good dose of healthy fats so we can better absorb the nutrients
  • I like to use Cara Cara oranges, but a navel orange will do!

Storage

  • Store leftover smoothie in a jar with a lid in the fridge for up to 2 days.

Leftovers + Repurposing

  • Eat straight out of the fridge!
  • Turn it into a smoothie bowl and top with granola, fruit, and nuts. You could even stir in some yogurt to make it thicker.
