Chocolate Beet Smoothie
Cocoa helps cover the strong taste of beets, and makes it really yummy to get the amazing nutrition of beets in! If you don't have beets or don't want to use them, put extra greens in instead.
Ingredients
- 1/2 small raw beet (about 2 inches in diameter)
- 1 banana (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cup frozen cherries (frozen strawberries are also good, but less sweet)
- 2 large dates (optional for more sweetness)
- 2 TBSP cacao powder
- 1 handful spinach or power greens
- 1.5 cups soy milk milk (or any plant milk)
- 1 TBSP hemp seeds or a scoop of plant protein powder
Instructions
- Peel and slice the piece of beet so it's easier to blend. Blend all ingredients together until very smooth. Enjoy!
