Beet and Blood Orange Spice Smoothie

Caregory : Breakfast Recipes

Beet and blood orange spice smoothie is a great Winter refresher that’s tasty and filling. Perfect for a healthy breakfast or hearty snack.

Ingredient

    • 1 medium beet, peeled and diced
    • 1 cup non-dairy milk
    • 1 small blood orange, peeled and torn into segments
    • ½ ripe banana, preferably frozen
    • 1 tablespoon almond butter
    • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • ¼ teaspoon ground cardamom
    • ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
    • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
    • big squeeze of lemon juice
    • ice (optional)

Direction

    1. Only use a raw beet if you have a high speed blender like a Vitamix.
    2. I love freezing my segments of citrus for smoothies because it adds to the frothy texture.
    3. Other add-ins that are great for rounding this smoothie out nutritionally: 1 teaspoon of flax/chia seeds, a big handful of mild greens like baby spinach, or a scoop of vegan protein powder.
