Beet Smoothie
Report
This raw Beet Smoothie is sweetened with plenty of icy strawberries so you can enjoy all the beet benefits without the raw root taste.
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond milk or other milk (see note 1)
- 2 ounces raw red beet peeled and chopped (about ¼ cup)
- 2 cups frozen strawberries about 8 ounces (see note 2)
- 1 coop protein powder or ½ cup Greek yogurt (see note 3)
- honey to taste, optional (see note 4)
Instructions
- In the bottom of a blender, add almond milk, beets, strawberries, and protein powder or Greek yogurt. Blend until smooth. Taste and add honey if desired.
Notes
- Milk: Use regular cow’s milk or your favorite non-dairy milk such as almond milk, cashew milk, oat milk, or soy milk. From skim to whole, any fat level will do.
- Strawberries: To substitute fresh strawberries, add ½ cup ice or more to the blender.
- Protein powder: Use either your favorite vanilla protein powder or ½ cup Greek yogurt.
- Honey: Taste the smoothie before adding any sweeteners, then start with a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup. If you use a vanilla-flavored protein powder, you probably won’t need anything.
- Yield: This recipe makes about 2 cups of smoothie, enough for 1 serving.
- Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Some separation may occur, so shake or stir to combine before enjoying.
