"Here’s everyone’s favorite sweet-tooth satisfier: beets! (Not what you were expecting, right?) Beets might be the last ingredient you’d expect in a “red velvet cake”, but in this recipe, you’ll love them. Both beets and raspberries have loads of phytochemicals that help neutralize toxins in your body. Along with ingredients like creamy peanut butter, dates, plant based protein powder, and crunchy raw cacao nibs, this is one healthful breakfast that you’ll actually crave." —Rachel Beller, registered dietitian, author of the bestselling book Eat to Lose, Eat to Win and founder of the Beller Nutritional Institute in Beverly Hills.
