Papaya & beetroot puree

Papaya and beetroot in a breakfast bowl? Yes, weird but strangely delicious. The colour combination makes for a beautiful spread and adding some activated nuts and blueberries you get a bowl full of goodness including vitamin C, fibre, vitamin B9, potassium and iron.

This is quick and simple meal, as long as you have prepared your beetroot beforehand. You can add any number of other fruits and powders to give you the edge you need.

​

1 whole medium papaya, peeled and deseeded

4 beetroots, peeled and boiled

1 tablespoon of chia seeds

handful of activated and roasted nuts of your choice

Handful of blueberries or any other fruits of your choice

​

Method:

Place the beetroot into a food processor and blend until into a smooth consistency. Make sure it is cool before doing so. Clean the food processor and then add the papaya and blend until smooth. Pour the papaya into a bowl or vessel of your choice, and then add the cooled beetroot. Only add a tablespoon at a time and then taste it, as you don't want it to over power your papaya. Then mix just a little to blend the colours and then add your chia seeds, nuts and fruits and serve.

​

Tip:

Freeze the remainder of your beetroot puree so that it keeps for another day or use it as a food colourant for pancakes or muffins or savoury rice or quinoa dishes. I reuse mine all the time for all of the above.
