In reply to Jane. I like to use raw--peeled and cut into chunks. I've used cooked before and the taste is different. If you like the taste, it sure would be an easier way to make the smoothie.

Do you cook the beets or use them raw. Can you use jarred beets?

Hi Karin,

I will have to try the beet smoothie with blueberries–that sounds great. Avocado is the one thing, I don’t like in a smoothie. That’s such a disappointment because I love avocados! Glad you enjoyed the blog and thanks for the great comment. It’s got a lot of take-aways for other readers too.

You and I think along the exact same lines!!! I use beets in my smoothie almost daily…they are so full of fiber and nutrients that I am sure they are one of the best vegies out there! I do the same as you and add kale/spinach and the frozen banana which gives it a nice smooth flavor and mellows the “earthy” taste of the beets! I add blueberries, coconut oil and I often blend with coconut milk too. I tend to throw more veg in my Vitamix and occassionally avocado or the seed (which apparently is extremely beneficial and full of antioxidants). Like you I can’t be bothered with salads for the most part and by juicing in the morning I give myself a good dose of fruit and vegies to set me for the day! ( I’m one of those ones who don’t often take time for breakfast on my early work hours.) Loved reading your blog! Thanks so much!

Super interesting post! I read this because I know I should eat beets but I don’t really like them. So adding them to my green smoothie seems like the perfect idea. I had never thought of putting a raw egg or oil in my smoothie. You’ve given me lots of great ideas! Thank you!
