A Strawberry, Blueberry, Oatmeal, and Beetroot Smoothie can be a nutritious, vibrant, and delicious way to start your day. It combines the antioxidant-rich fruits with the heart-healthy benefits of oatmeal and the earthy goodness of beets. Here’s a simple recipe you can try:
Ingredients:
• 1/2 cup strawberries (fresh or frozen)
• 1/2 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
• 1 small beetroot (peeled and cooked or raw)
• 1/4 cup rolled oats (uncooked)
• 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or a non-dairy alternative (for creaminess)
• 1 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
• Ice cubes (optional, for a chilled smoothie)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Beetroot: If you’re using a raw beetroot, peel and chop it into small chunks. You can also steam or roast it to soften the texture if preferred.
2. Blend the Ingredients: In a blender, combine the strawberries, blueberries, beetroot, rolled oats, Greek yogurt, almond milk, and honey or maple syrup (if you’re using it).
3. Adjust Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more almond milk or water until it reaches your desired consistency.
4. Blend Until Smooth: Blend everything until smooth and creamy, making sure the oats and beetroot are fully blended.
5. Serve: Pour the smoothie into a glass, and if desired, garnish with a few extra berries or a sprinkle of oats on top.
