Strawberry Beet and Banana Protein Shake
This Strawberry, Beet, and Banana Protein Shake will make getting your daily beet allowance a cinch! Check out the recipe below or read on to find out all the ways you can enjoy beets!
When it comes to food, my daughter has some quirks. For example, she loves apples and apple crumbles, but will always pass on apple pie. The same goes with her and grapes. She loves grapes in all their colors and hues – but if I tried to feed her grape jelly, I will become public enemy #1!
And, I shouldn’t complain too much. If you’ve been visiting this space of mine for a bit, you would probably know that my love for beets is strong. I love beets and have thoroughly enjoyed them in these:
• Crepes…
• Donuts…
• Banana bread…
• Crackers…
• Cakes…
• Cookies…
• Currries…
• Soups…
• Salads…
• Dips…
• Burgers…
• And even in this Pizza Base!
But – I am so not a fan of beet juice! I’ve tried adding ginger, and carrots and the like but just cannot seem to get it to where my tongue doesn’t wanna whip it outta my oral orifice!
And…thats where this shake comes into play!
I leaned on my love of the combination of beets and berries while making this shake. Now, this shake isn’t the thickest – it’s quite light – the kinda shake that you could down two glasses of and then go outside and run around in circles or mow your yard – whichever you fancy. Yes, you will taste the beets in here – but, so will you taste the frozen banana, the strawberries and Premier Protein‘s Strawberries and Cream Shake. Now, you could add more oats than the 1 tablespoon I used to make this thicker. Or, you could make ice cubes using Premier Protein‘s Strawberries and Cream Shake and use those with some of the liquid form of the shake for a thicker shake as well. Either way, whether you maybe a beet-lover or beet-hater, this is one shake am betting you will enjoy.

Will try this tomorrow. Hopefully I can get this awful tasting but super healthy beetroots somehow down my throat.
I try as your suggestions and my son loves it so much. The taste is so good and I think that I will make it frequently for my family to enjoy. Thanks for your creative and sharing.
Alternative smoothie for my protein shake diet plan. I only combine the banana and the strawberry, but I will try to add beet. Good luck to me. I hope the taste will be great.
Love it. I love beets as well, this is a great shake and your photos are gorgeous❤️. Thanks for sharing.
I could definitely start the day with this shake! Excellent recipe!
No I don’t. I’ve never had beets before
I actually haven’t had beets since I was a kid! I didn’t like them then, but I bet I would now. I prefer broccoli cooked as opposed to raw, and I couldn’t agree more with you on avocados! I can not stand them warm, it just doesn’t seem right to me. I remember ordering a burger with avocado once and did not like it at all.
Hmm, the only think I can think of is avocado. I love it in any form but I can’t stand it warm. There was a recipe for bacon wrapped avocado slices that you cooked in the oven and hot avocado is gross to me. I love it plain, in recipes, as guacamole, just not warmed. I do love beets though.
I have to eat white rice in sushi I can’t eat rice any other way. Not with chicken or tuna it has to be sushi lol
I’ve never tried beets before but the people I’ve asked that have liked it
