Berry Beet Smoothie
easy breakfast - difficulty: level 1
sweet earthy goodness
This tasty blend is inspired by the brisk mornings when my sweetie wakes me up with a piping hot mug of coffee and a tall, frothy smoothie.
Mango, Blueberry, and Banana come together with earthy Beets and Flax to make a rich, almost chewy, smoothie. Add in some Peanut Butter and it becomes a hearty meal, perfect for sharing.

Ingredients
2 x ripe Bananas
1 cup Frozen Mango
1 cup Frozen Blueberries
1 x raw Beet
1 x Apple
2 tbsp Peanut Butter
1 tbsp Flax, ground
1 cup Water
Equipment
Blender
INSTRUCTIONS
Gather your ingredients!
Peel your Beet and core your Apple.
Throw everything in a blender and blend on high speed for about 30-60 seconds, or until creamy and smooth.
NOTES
Not using a high-speed blender? Dice your Beet and Apple beforehand to get a smoother consistency.
If you’re feelin adventurous, add in a Kiwi or Spinach, swap the Apple for a Pear, or use Almond Milk instead of Water. You can even swap Peanut Butter for your favorite nut butter.
Give this smoothie a more milkshake-y consistency by freezing your Bananas first!
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge so it doesn't get yucky and oxidize.
