First I want to talk about beets. (I know, not very exciting) But Tawnee (TRi*Tawn) had an excellent post on the health benefits for endurance athletes that come from raw beets. I just have to share!
So why not throw it in my daily smoothie? Today I headed over to Publix to pick up a three pack (so in Florida they come in 3's) and try it out. And all I can say yumm..it was an excellent addition to my daily smoothie goodness. I'm still waiting for my pee to be dis-colored, but it has not happened yet. Bummer.

I don't have a vitamix - so I cleaned the beet and then chopped it up. My blender had no problem blending it together.
I just have to thow in how wonderful the color is.

I havn't had a beet since I was young. And I hated them. Maybe I should give them another chance in a smoothie. It looked so pretty.
