Beet N Pomegranate Smoothie

Eating boiled beetroot is a very painful experience for my son who has decided that he just doesn't like beet. And so to make him eat this wonderful root vegetable I am always in search of recipes where I can hide this beet in a delicious way.

Pomegranate is one fruit which he loves and so while making a juice I just add a bit of boiled beet to this smoothie. Using little lemon juice enhances the nutruitional value and also the taste. Just try and see the difference .

 Adding vegetable not only makes the juice or smoothie tasty but also gives you a healthy start for your day ahead .  Having them for breakfast refreshes you too.

Also added some chia seeds also known as  ( sabja seeds ) or ( tukmaria seeds ).
