Almond Butter and Beetroot Smoothie

Beetroots are great to incorporate into our diets for anti-inflammatory and detoxification benefits. They have also been shown to lower high blood pressure and improve both digestive health. Here’s a favourite smoothie recipe of mine using beetroots. Enjoy!

Almond Butter and Beetroot Smoothie

• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder

• 2 cups almond milk

• 1-2 steamed or roasted medium beetroots

• 2 tablespoons almond butter/cashew butter

• 1/2 cup frozen chopped zucchini or cauliflower

• Handful of walnuts.

• Juice of half a lemon (about 2 tablespoons)

Simply combine all the ingredients in a blender and blend until thick and creamy. You may adjust for your desired thickness by adding more liquid.
