Kitchen Preparation Science
- Combine the beet, berries, banana, yogurt, and almond milk in a blender. Blend on high for 45–60 seconds until completely smooth.
- Pour into a bowl and stir in the chia seeds. Let it sit for 5 minutes — the chia absorbs liquid and thickens the bowl into a spoonable texture.
- Drizzle with honey if desired and top with a few reserved berries.
Kitchen science: Using a pre-cooked beet keeps the morning fast, and blending it with berries softens beet’s earthy edge while keeping the natural nitrates fully intact — heat destroys some of the compounds you’re after, which is why this bowl skips cooking entirely.
Allergens: Contains dairy (yogurt).
Swerve/Alternative Option: Swap the Greek yogurt for coconut yogurt, or use oat milk instead of almond milk for a nut-free version.
