Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup frozen blueberries
  • 1/2 cup chopped or grated beets
  • 1/2 banana
  • 1 cup milk of any kind (dairy or non-dairy)

Toppings

  • Additional blueberries
  • Plain yogurt (regular or dairy-free)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Ensure your blueberries are frozen, and your beets are chopped or grated to facilitate easy blending. Peel and slice the banana for easier blending as well.
  2. Combine in Blender: Place the frozen blueberries, chopped or grated beets, banana, and milk into a blender. Use 1 cup of milk, but adjust as needed for your desired smoothie thickness.
  3. Blend Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed until you achieve a creamy, smooth consistency. Pause to scrape down the sides if needed.
  4. Adjust Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more milk and blend again until you reach your preferred texture.
  5. Add Toppings and Serve: Pour the smoothie into a glass and top with additional blueberries and a dollop of plain or dairy-free yogurt according to your taste. Enjoy immediately for best flavor and freshness.

Notes

  • Using frozen blueberries helps create a thick, chilled smoothie without the need for ice.
  • Chopping or grating the beets before blending ensures a smooth texture without large chunks.
  • You can substitute any milk of your preference, such as almond, oat, cow’s milk, or soy.
  • Adjust the sweetness by varying the quantity of banana or adding a natural sweetener if desired.
  • Toppings are optional but add texture and flavor – yogurt adds creaminess and protein.
