Pretty In Pink
Hey friends!
happy fall !
This smoothie is way too pretty and way too good not to share! Not only that, it is perfect for the cooler weather ahead. The addition of ginger, turmeric, and cinnamon add not only anti-inflammatory benefits along with many others, but they also add just a hint of warmth. So no excuses not to get your smoothies in when the weather turns cold!
The beets in this recipe add to the beautiful vibrant color and add a great source of nutrients, including fiber, folate, and vitamin C. Beets have been shown to lower high blood pressure and improve athletic performance.
It's simple to put together with just some chopping and blending so when you do make it, please be sure to let me know how you liked it!
