Berry Beet Smoothie

This smoothie is so pretty and surprisingly sweet. Beets, the star of this bevvy, are a root vegetable that’s high in folate and manganese (a mineral that strengthens bones and boosts metabolism). They also chip in vitamins C and A. Note that I’ve given a range for the beets; I’d recommend starting on the low end and gradually increasing until you find your flavor sweet spot—the higher end offers quite an intense beet taste. You can use canned instead of fresh for convenience if you’d like. I’ve also mixed in some oats because they provide extra fiber and enhance the texture, but feel free to skip if you’re looking for a slightly slimmer, lower-carb sip. I’m not sure which I love more—the delicious flavor or the stunning color—either way, it’s really un-beet-able.
