Beetroot Berry Yogurt Smoothie

Cooked beetroot and berries create a vivid pink smoothie with an earthy-sweet flavour. Using soft cooked beetroot makes the recipe more suitable for small blenders than raw, firm beetroot.

Ingredients

Method

1. Start with ready-cooked plain beetroot without vinegar that is already fully cooled, then cut it into small pieces. If preparing raw beetroot, cook and cool it separately in advance; that extra preparation is not included in this quick blending method.
2. Add milk and yogurt to the bottle, then the beetroot, washed strawberry pieces and optional lemon.
3. Check the maximum fill line and blend according to the manual. If it does not circulate, stop and adjust the portion safely.
4. Serve promptly and rinse the food-contact surfaces before beetroot colour settles.

Make it your own: Vacuum-packed beetroot may be seasoned or pickled, so check the label. Beetroot strongly stains hands and surfaces; prepare it on an easily cleaned board.

Nutrition notes

Nutrition depends on the chosen ingredients, brand and exact amounts. This recipe is an editorial ingredient suggestion, not a kitchen-tested or laboratory-analysed nutrition claim. No precise calorie or macronutrient figures are asserted.

Portable blender notes

Ingredient volumes and density vary. Adjust the quantities downward if necessary for your specific appliance and never exceed its working fill line. Add suitable cold liquid first, prepare fruit into small pieces and check the frozen-fruit and ice precautions before making substitutions. Do not force stalled blades. Follow the Smothie manual for model-specific guidance.

Allergens and other considerations
