Fruit & Veggie Smoothie Leathers

A healthy vegetable and fruit-based smoothie, made into fruit leathers for the perfect portable snack. It will work with any of your favorite smoothie recipes!

It’s hard to believe that I’m already on day 4 of my 5-day juice kit-cleanse from Total Cleanse. As nice as it is to have full control over the juices I enjoy in a cleanse, the convenience of just walking over to my fridge and grabbing a pre-made juice has been a nice change. Because of the cost, I’m not sure I would do a kit-cleanse for all of my juice cleanses so I’m soaking in this experience while I can.

So, tomorrow will be the last day of my cleanse. Then, I’ll be transitioning over to solid foods. I usually do 1-2 days of various smoothies, followed by 2 days of steamed veggies, then I add in nuts/seeds, and lastly, animal protein. The whole transition takes about 7 days. The problem with the smoothie days is that it’s a bit challenging to take smoothies with me on the go. So, I came up with a way I can still enjoy my post-cleanse smoothies without having to worry about refrigeration.

The smoothie fruit leather!

A healthy vegetable and fruit-based smoothie, made into fruit leathers for the perfect portable snack!
Ingredients
  • 6 large carrots, juiced
  • 3 apples, juiced
  • 1 banana
  • 1 (180 grams) mango fruit
  • 12 (350 grams) strawberries
  • ¼ cup chia seeds
  • ¼ cup protein powder, optional
  • ½ cup carrot and apple pulp
Instructions
  1. Add ingredients to the jug of your high powered blender. Blend on high, until smooth.
  2. For dehydrator method: (I use this dehydrator), spread the fruit mixture on teflex sheets until they're about ⅛-inch in thickness. Dehydrate for 5-6 hours at 105F.
  3. For oven method: Preheat oven to 150F or the lowest temperature it will go. Line a 11x17 baking sheet with a silicon baking mat or parchment paper.
  4. Pour the fruit mixture onto prepared baking sheet and spread to about a ⅛-inch thick. Place baking sheet in the oven and bake for 6-8 hours, until pan is set and the center is not tacky. Remove from oven and let cool to room temperature.
Notes
Juice quantity: juice yields 20 oz

Storage: Cut into squares or strips using scissors. If you want to make fruit roll-ups, roll the strips in parchment paper. Store in an air-tight container.

I used frozen mango and strawberries for this recipe. If you’re going to go this route, make sure that you defrost them before you use them for this recipe.
