Eating your veggies has never been so tasty

It's hard to miss the memo when a smoothie contains beets: The color pretty much gives it away. Of course, beet smoothies aren't just pretty. The root veggie is an excellent source of folate, and it's also chock full of fiber, iron and other good-for-you nutrients.

So steam some fresh beets (or crack open a can of ready-to-go beets), and plug in your blender to try some of our favorite beet smoothie recipes on Instagram this week:

This meal in a mason jar is made from beets, protein powder, pineapple, almond milk, and OJ. Yum!

 

Q: What do you get when you mix beets and chai tea? A: This totally original beet-based smoothie.

 

Turns out, you don't need a ton of ingredients to make a yummy beet drink. This one is made from beets, banana, coconut water, and...yep, that's all!

 

This beet smoothie is topped with shredded coconut and cacao nibs, so it feels like a treat–even though it's full of healthy stuff like cucumbers, carrots, ginger root, and red grapes.

 

Chances are, you never thought of mixing strawberries and beets. But add coconut water and a natural sweetener such as stevia, and you'll have an addictively tasty combo.
