5 RECIPES USING Purition BEETROOT

1. Savoury beetroot dip

Purition as a savoury dip? Yep, that's right.

40g Purition Beetroot stirred into 120g of cream cheese, creme fraiche or hummus makes for a delicious and vibrant dip to enjoy with your favourite vegetables. We recommend adding a good squeeze of a lemon, some salt and pepper to balance the flavours to your taste.

Before you say no, give it a go - trust us on this one! 

2. Energy balls

Energy balls, protein balls, bliss balls... whatever you like to call them, there’s no denying that they’re perfect for a mid afternoon pick-me-up or when you just need a little something.

Our energy balls offer a healthier twist to conventional sugary treats, but let's not forget, they owe their sweetness to those naturally sugary dates. While it's the "natural" kind of sugar, it's still sugar, so be mindful of this - especially if weight-loss is your goal.

As the wise folks say, moderation is key!

SWAPS & OPTIONAL EXTRAS 

• Try adding cinnamon, turmeric, vanilla extract or goji berries to the mix before pulsing.
• Once chilled, sprinkle with desiccated coconut, crushed nuts or melted chocolate.
• If you want to keep them low sugar, simply leave the dates out. You might need to add a bit more liquid to bring the mixture together but it works perfectly!

3. Beetroot smoothie

Rich in nitrates, beetroot supports heart health. Blueberries bring a dose of vitamins and antioxidants. Ginger adds a touch of warmth and aids digestion. Plus, with the protein and healthy fats from Purition, it's a wholesome, balanced and delicious meal in a glass!

4. Yoghurt bowl 

You probably know by now that this is one of our favourite ways of enjoying Purition. It's easy to make, high in protein, good for your gut and so delicious! Plus, is a great option when you don't have a blender at hand.

HOW TO MAKE  

Simply stir 40g of Purition into 125g of Greek style yoghurt and top up with your favourite fruits, vegetables or sprinkle some nuts and seeds for extra crunch.
We went for blueberries, cucumber and a sprinkle of Purition Beetroot - DE LI CIOUS!  

5. Low carb porridge

Porridge is a UK breakfast staple, but it’s not the best choice for a low-carb diet. There’s no need to miss out though – try Purition as an oat-free low-carb instant porridge instead! High in protein, fibre & natural fats at just 2–4g net carbs per serving, it makes for a quick, creamy and hearty morning porridge swap.

HOW TO MAKE  

Add a splash of hot boiled water or milk to 40g of Purition, mix well, add your choice of toppings and voila.
It’s a quick, easy and nutritious low-carb or keto alternative to porridge, so you don’t need to miss out!
