Red Velvet Chocolate Shakeology

It’s hard to resist the delicious color (and flavor!) of red velvet cakes, red velvet cupcakes, red velvet sponge cakes…you get the picture.

But instead of throwing all your healthy eating goals out the window, blend up this gorgeous Red Velvet Smoothie instead.

This drinkable version of a red velvet cake features some of the very same ingredients originally used to make this yummy treat so delicious.

This Chocolate Shakeology smoothie recipe gets its gorgeous hue from a cooked beet (we promise you won’t taste it), and a dollop of mascarpone cheese gives it a hint of that cream cheese frosting flavor.
