You Make My Heart Beet Smoothie
- 1 whole Beet, Lightly Steamed (See Note)
- 1-1/4 cup Plain Kefir (or Almond Milk)
- 2 Tablespoons Vanilla Protein Powder
- 1 cup Frozen Cherries
- 3 whole Ice Cubes, Or More Depending On The Consistency You'd Like
- 1 teaspoon Bee Pollen
- Peel beet using a paper towel. Add all of the ingredients except bee pollen to your blender and blend until smooth. Sprinkle bee pollen on top of the smoothie before serving.
- Note: To steam the beet, fill the bottom of a steamer with 2 inches of water. While water is coming to a boil, wash beet, leaving 2 inches of tap root and 1 inch of the stem. Cut into quarters; do not peel. Steam, covered, for 15 minutes. Beet is cooked when you can easily insert a fork on the tip of a knife into the beet. Although some of the colorful phytonutrients are lost to the steaming water, there is plenty of color and nutrients left in the beet. Transfer to a bowl and let cool.
