Berry Beet Recovery Smoothie Recipe

American · Beverage · 10 min total

A vibrant, nutrient-packed smoothie that combines the earthy sweetness of roasted beets with antioxidant-rich berries for post-workout recovery.

Ingredients

• 1 medium beet, roasted and peeled (or 1/2 cup canned, drained)
• 1 cup frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
• 1 medium banana, frozen
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds
• 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

Instructions

1. If using fresh beet, roast at 400°F for 45-60 minutes until tender, then peel and cool. Alternatively, use canned beets.
2. Add all ingredients to a blender: roasted beet, frozen berries, frozen banana, almond milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, and sweetener if desired.
3. Blend on high until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes. If too thick, add more almond milk a tablespoon at a time.
4. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed. Pour into glasses and serve immediately.

Tips

• For a vegan version, use plant-based yogurt and maple syrup.
• Roast beets ahead of time and keep refrigerated for up to 5 days.
• Add a scoop of protein powder for extra recovery benefits.
