The purple vegetable is a nutritious and versatile plant-based meal option that can support weight loss in several ways. Here are a few yummy options:
All you need to do is pickle the slices with spices, vinegar and a touch of honey. Thanks to its crunch and tangy kick, it can be a low-calorie side dish to anything you eat.
Blend beet slices with your favourite fruits, Greek yoghurt and a touch of honey and sprinkle nuts and seeds on top. The fibre content in it can keep you full for a long time, while not increasing your calorie intake.
If thin beet slices can be tossed with some olive oil, and seasoning and then baked until crisp, it can be a healthy alternative to other fried snacks.
With a pinch of ginger and lemon, blend it raw with water. It can boost your metabolism, cardiovascular health, exercise performance and digestive health.
Quinoa cooked with roasted beetroot and greens is a balanced meal with complex carbs, which can help you lose weight.
