The Blood Orange Strawberry Beet Smoothie is a vibrant, nutrient-packed blend designed to fuel your morning with fruits, vegetables, healthy fats, and protein — all in one glass. Sweet strawberries and banana balance the earthy beet, while blood orange adds a bright citrus flavor that makes this smoothie refreshing and energizing from the very first sip.

It’s an easy way to start the day strong, whether you’re fueling busy mornings, supporting recovery, or simply looking for a delicious way to add more whole foods to your routine.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 blood orange, peeled

  • 1 cup frozen strawberries

  • 1 banana

  • 1 small beet with greens

  • 1 date, pitted

  • 3 tablespoons cashews, soaked overnight

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil

  • 1 tablespoon hemp seeds

  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds

  • 2 teaspoons bee pollen

  • 1 1/4 cups almond milk

  • 2 tablespoons yogurt or kefir (dairy or dairy-free)

Instructions

  1. Add all ingredients to a blender.

  2. Blend on high until smooth and creamy.

  3. Pour into a tall glass.

  4. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

  • Prep Tip: Soak cashews overnight for the smoothest texture. A quick 15–20 minute soak in hot water works in a pinch.

  • Flavor Balance: The banana and date naturally sweeten the smoothie while mellowing the beet flavor.

  • Dairy-Free Option: Use plant-based yogurt or kefir for a fully dairy-free version.

  • Extra Protein: Add a scoop of vanilla protein powder for a more filling meal replacement.

  • Beet Greens Bonus: Including the greens increases fiber and micronutrients — don’t skip them if available.
