BLOOD AND GREENS SMOOTHIE

Name: BLOOD AND GREENS SMOOTHIE
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 cooked beet (or try Super Beets powder) 1 cup coconut water 1 tbsp maple syrup (cuts any bitterness of the beets) 1 cup spinach 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1/2 lime juiced (optional); 1 scoop vanilla Vega Sport Protein (optional, but makes it more filling to me); 1 cup mixed berries (or my preference is frozen cherries)

Instructions

Many folks are scared to use beets in their smoothies and I was absolutely in that boat for many years, but the benefits to athletes are huge so I prepared myself for a bad taste and forged ahead. To my surprise I found some great mixtures and you’d never know it included beets! Beets are fabulous for boosting stamina, fighting inflammation, helping with digestion and has become a big favorite of athletes.
