Sometimes you just need to make a fancy smoothie. It feels good, it taste good; it's just so good all around.
I don't really celebrate Valentine's Day so fun treats like this is my own way of celebrating. I hope you'll join me!
I recommend beginning to make this smoothie the day before you plan to eat it. It's not one that you can just whip up in a few minutes but I have to say, it's totally worth it!
VALENTINE'S DAY SMOOTHIE RECIPE
serves 2
1 cup plant based milk
1 banana
1/2 of a medium sized beet, I steamed mine first
Drop of vanilla
Blend together milk, banana, and vanilla. Pour 1/2 of the smoothie into a separate cup. Blend the remaining with the beet. Taking two different glasses, pour the different smoothie mixtures into separate glasses while having them tipped on their side. Once filled, place the tipped glass in the freezer for 4 hours. Make sure that you have the glass in a place that it won't tip or move or it will mess up the process of freezing it. Once frozen, remove from freezer and make the second portion of the smoothie.
1 cup plant milk
1 cup frozen strawberries
1 banana
1 cup berry flavored yogurt
Granola
Coconut butter
Chocolate
Blend milk, strawberries, and banana together. Tip the glasses the opposite way and fill with smoothie. Place back in freezer until frozen completely, probably another 4 hours. Remove from from freezer and fill the center with yogurt. Top with granola, drizzled coconut butter, chocolate, and whatever else you desire. Serve, enjoy!
