Red Velvet Smoothie

Red Velvet Smoothie

Beetroot is often used in red velvet cakes to give them their deep, red color, so they're the perfect ingredient for this mix. A little raw cacao rounds out the flavors and avocado adds not only creaminess and fluffiness but also a healthy dose of monounsaturated fatty acids, which are heart-healthy and anti-inflammatory. Could it get any better than that?

  • 2 tspStevia
  • 1 cupAlmond Milk, unsweetened
