Here’s a third color to consider, along with a perfect smoothie recipe:
If your color choice is magenta, then here are the ingredients you’ll need to make a large Strawberry Beet Smoothie.
In addition to strawberries and bananas:
I’ve added roasted, cooled, and peeled beets to this smoothie. It’s added fiber, folate, and major magenta coloring. I’ve also thrown in freshly ground flax seeds for some good omega action.
This smoothie is packed with good, but doesn’t taste like drinking a beet salad. It’s sweet, pink, and filling. It’s totally my new favorite.
Here are the ingredients you’ll need:
1 banana, sliced into chunks, frozen is ideal
1 heaping cup sliced strawberries, frozen is awesome
about 1/3 cup steamed beets (I used two about half a large beet)
1 heaping tablespoon flax seed meal
1 cup cold Almond Milk
The preparation instructions are simple:
1. In a blender, combine banana, strawberries, steamed and cooled beets, flax seed meal, and almond milk. Blend until smooth.
2. Add more almond milk if the smoothie is too thick for your taste.
3. Enjoy immediately.
Tip: Double up on the recipe of your choice and freeze whatever portion you may want to keep to enjoy later. Here’s a link to a few valuable tips for Making Freezer Smoothies.
