Chocolate Beet Smoothie

About This Recipe

Chocolate beet smoothie with beets, greek yogurt, nut butter, and cacao. The combo of chocolate and beets packs vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants and makes a healthy breakfast, snack, or natural pre-workout. Gluten-free and high in protein.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup plain greek yogurt ((I used 0%))
  • 1 cup diced cooked beets ((150 grams/2-3 small-medium)*)
  • 1 cup frozen cauliflower rice ((100 grams))
  • 2 heaping tablespoons cacao powder
  • 1 tablespoon cashew butter
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4-1/2 cup milk ((depending on desired consistency))
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder ((optional, but I like it for more chocolate flavor))
  • optional toppings: granola, cacao nibs, cinnamon...

Instructions

  1. If needed, prepare your beets (see section below). I buy precooked beets to make this easy.
  2. Blend your smoothie. Add all the ingredients to a high-speed blender (I used my Vitamix) and blend until smooth and creamy.
  3. Enjoy! Drink or top with some toppings and enjoy!
