Citrus – Beet Smoothie

Beets are great – and they really are one of my favorite foods. Their color, their taste, their everything. I heart them in a big way. Unfortunately though, not everyone feels the same way I do. Because of this, I figured smoothies would be the best way to mask enhance the flavor of raw beets.

Ingredients

• 1 large beet (or a few small)
• 2 oranges (peeled)
• 1 lime (peeled)
• 1 T lemon juice
• 1 scoop of vanilla or plain protein powder (rice or pea) – optional.
• sweetener of choice
• 1 cup of water (only if needed to move everything in blender)

Instructions

1. In a high-speed blender, combine all ingredients and blend until smooth.
