Vegan Beetroot Apple Smoothie Recipe
This Vegan Beetroot Smoothie with sour green apples and freshly grated ginger has a great, refreshing taste and is full of useful fiber! You can drink it in the morning for breakfast or choose as a light between-meal instead of purchasing unhealthy snacks.
Ingredients
- 1 beetroot (up to 150 g)
- 1 banana (frozen)
- 2 apples (e.g. Granny Smith)
- 1 teaspoon ginger (freshly grated)
- 1 tablespoon protein powder (optional)
- 4 dcl cold water
- ½ organic lemon (juice)
Instructions
- Cook the unpeeled beetroot until it becomes soft. Remove it from the liquid, allow it to cool slightly, peel it and cut it into pieces. This way it will cool down faster. Wash and peel the apples.
- Put beets and apples in the blender, add grated ginger and the rest of the ingredients and blend for about 3 minutes or until smooth.
- Serve cold!
Notes
- If you want to drink this smoothie before the workout, you can add a few tablespoons of oats for extra energy.
- If you prefer your smoothie to be thinner, add more water or some almond milk.
- Personally, I don't add any sweeteners in this smoothie because I find this unnecessary, but if you have sweet tooth, you can add some honey or date syrup (if you want to keep it vegan).
- You can store this beetroot smoothie for 24 hours in the fridge.
