Beetroot was the wonderful vegetable which
improves our body’s haemoglobin content. A great veggie with antioxidant
property.
For this January theme – Red Theme for Ssshhhhh secretly cooking , I was paired with
Poornima Porchelvan of Poornima cookbook. She gave me Beetroot and almond as the secret
ingredients.
I decided to make a smoothie bowl , with beet
and Almond along with Red Banana , pomegranate and cardamom.
This smoothie bowl will be a perfect valentine
treat for your loved one in a healthy guilt free way.
Red banana also known as Red dacca banana is a
great source of fiber.It is rich in potassium and Vitamin C.
This
smoothie bowl can be prepared and served within ten minutes if you have the
ingredients in hand.
