Equipment
- high speed blender
Ingredients
- 1 small red beet peeled, chopped
- ½ cup blueberries frozen
- 1 banana peeled
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
- ½ cup unsweetened almond milk or any dairy-free milk
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender.
- Blend until smooth and creamy.
Notes
- This smoothie isn’t overly sweet on its own, so feel free to add a date or a splash of maple syrup if you like it sweeter.
- Wear gloves when handling beets to keep your hands from getting stained.
- Use frozen blueberries and banana for a thicker, creamier smoothie without adding ice.
- If your blender isn’t very powerful, chop the beet into smaller pieces for easier blending.
- Storage: Best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Just give it a good shake or stir before drinking.
