Equipments used:
Notes
- Steam cooked beats will blend quicker and easier, however raw can definitely be used, just be sure to dice them before adding to the blender.
- ¼ to ? cup beet juice may also be used instead.
- Using frozen raspberries helps to thicken the smoothie without watering it down.
- Cottage cheese does not add any flavor to the smoothie, but it’s packed with protein and makes this smoothie slightly creamy. Greek yogurt could be used instead, but I prefer cottage cheese.
- You can use any kind of milk in this recipe, dairy, nut, oat, soy, etc.
- Honey may be substituted for maple syrup, agave, or left out.
- You can really add any “extras” you want to this smoothie, just avoid heavily flavored additions like protein powder.
- Apple cider vinegar gives this smoothie a nice zing and can take it to “juice bar” level, and it really tastes delicious - think pickled beets/raspberry vinaigrette - it’s different, but really good!
- A banana may be added to this smoothie for thickness and sweetness.
- 2 tablespoons of oatmeal may be added for thickness.
