Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen blueberries
- ½ large beet (or 1 small/medium beet)
- 1 ripe banana (fresh or frozen - add extra liquid if frozen)
- 1/4-1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk
- 1 cup chopped kale (leaves removed from stem)
- 2 TBSP orange juice
OPTIONAL EXTRAS
- green apple (or orange sections for added fruit)
- orange juice instead of coconut milk
- spinach instead of kale
- flax or chia seeds for an extra kick of fiber
- ice (if you're using all fresh ingredients)
Instructions
- Get Blending!
- Cook up some beets for a salad or side dish and then set a few slices aside for this smoothie!
- To make this bad boy, toss everything in the blender and let it do the work for you.
- Adjust the liquids and even add ice if needed, it'll just depend on your ratio of frozen ingredients to fresh.
- I always start with the recipe above and then just tweak as needed!
- While I don't typically sweeten my smoothies, feel free to sweeten with extra fruit, juice, or agave syrup if desired. Anything goes; empty that crisper and enjoy!
