Equipment
- Blender
Ingredients
- 1 medium-sized beet peeled and chopped
- 1 cup frozen berries such as blueberries or raspberries
- 1 cup spinach or kale leaves
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon flaxseeds
- 1 cup almond milk or any other plant-based milk
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup optional, for sweetness
- Ice cubes optional, for extra chill
Instructions
- Prepare the beet: Wash the beet thoroughly, peel it, and chop it into small pieces. You can also boil or steam the beet beforehand to soften it if desired.
- Combine the ingredients: In a blender, add the chopped beet, frozen berries, spinach or kale leaves, ripe banana, chia seeds, flaxseeds, almond milk, and sweetener (if using). If you prefer a colder smoothie, you can add a handful of ice cubes as well.
- Blend until smooth: Start blending the ingredients on low speed and gradually increase the speed until the mixture becomes smooth and well combined. Blend for 1-2 minutes or until you reach your desired consistency.
- Adjust the sweetness: Taste the smoothie and add more sweetener if needed. Keep in mind that the natural sweetness from the fruits may be sufficient for your taste, so adjust according to your preference.
- Serve and enjoy: Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately. You can also garnish it with a sprinkle of chia seeds or a few berries on top. This smoothie is best enjoyed fresh, but you can store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
