HEALTH BENEFITS OF CARROTS
Carrots have strong cleansing properties that are effective in detoxifying the liver, thus very effective for acne that is caused by toxins in the blood.
Carrots are also useful for treating uneven skin tones due to pigmentation.
The vitamin A and other nutrients contained in carrots efficiently nourish the skin, prevent dry skin and other skin blemishes.
Chewing carrots can help clean your teeth, and is the best way to keep your mouth clean after meals.
They act as natural abrasives that help in eliminating the dirt and plaque from the teeth and gums.
They also trigger a lot of saliva, which helps to scrub away stains on your teeth.
Minerals in carrots helps to kill germs in the mouth and prevent tooth damage.

BLENDER BABES RECIPE TESTER NOTES
“I subbed tamari for nama shoyu, because it’s gluten-free. Next time I think I’ll add a slice or two of avocado to make the recipe creamier and would be a nice addition.”
“Taste great, smelled very fresh. Next time I will probably add a little salt, eliminate the soy sauce, add basil, and maybe spinach.”
” I suggest letting it sit longer to heighten the flavors, overnight in the fridge or simmer for an hour. I ate it both ways (cold and hot). It tasted better when left to linger in the flavors.”

Sounds yummy. But will someone please tell me…. I have a Blendtec and was under the impression that I could just put it all in the blender… do I have to chop every thing ahead of time? Can I just throw 4 tomatoes and a carrot into the jar along with everything? Is there a system? Thank you for your kind attention.
Hey Sheila! Great question! I usually cut all fruit and vegetables in half at least, sometimes quarters. But I don’t throw it in whole. Basically you just want to prep slightly, but not as much as you need to do with a “”regular”” blender, which is prepping usually to 1 inch pieces. One of the perks with Blendtec is you don’t need a tamper and have to stand there to push ingredients down with it. That said, lightly prepping your ingredients will make sure nothing gets stuck and that blade can pulverize whatever you throw at it. Hope that helps!

I like that this recipe is full of vegetables and for me was a great introduction to making soup in my new Blendtec; however, it is very bland. Next time I would add some seasonings such as cumin and/or cayenne pepper. I added more quantity of vegetables to the Chopped Vegetable Mixture and also included chopped baby kale and dry basil.
