Beet, Banana and Berry Smoothie

Much needed post all the holiday indulgence… a simple smoothie that packs a punch. Loaded with fiber, antioxidants and protein to boost energy levels, it also tastes as good as it looks (this is literally one of the prettiest smoothies I’ve ever made). The reason I like smoothies is because they are like drinkable desserts… without the guilt. I cannot wait to get the last week of 2020 done and dusted…here’s to new beginnings, more self love and smoothies!
