Our favorite protein shakes are the kind that are loaded with veggies and this recipe delivers! This chocolatey shake is filled with pureed beets which blend seamlessly and provide a sweet, satisfying protein shake that will curb any sweet tooth craving you might have.
We like to buy beets that are already steamed and vacuum-sealed, so that you can easily puree them without the hassle of peeling and steaming. To puree your steamed beets, all you have to do is place them in a magic bullet, blender, or food processor with about a tablespoon or so of water, and puree away! Place in a tupperware and store in your refrigerator for a couple of days.
So, grab your blender and chocolate protein powder because we’re making a shake you and your family are going to love!
