Chocolate Beet Smoothie
Submitted by:Linsey Corbin
This is a great smoothie to have after a workout, for breakfast-on-the-go or if you are craving a sweet treat. It’s packed with protein, beets (hello, heart-healthy nitrates!), berries, and our favorite: chocolate - but a healthy version. The other great thing about this smoothie, is it makes enough for x2. So share with a friend, or drink x1 and save the other in a mason jar with a tight fitting lid for post-workout the next day.
