Beet Root Brownies

It’s dessert Friday!

I am celebrating the end of the week and beginning of summer with these 15 minute gluten free brownies made with a secret ingredient – superfoods!

If you know me, you know I love incorporating superfoods every chance I get whether it be breakfast, dessert, lunch or snacks. While they don’t have an official definition, superfoods in general are known as foods that have a high level of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants relative to the amount of calories they contain.

I especially love BareOrganics superfoods because they are all about real nutrition for real people and helping you meet your daily nutrition goals and feeling energized. Their products are USDA certified organic, non-GMO and most are vegan and gluten free as well. I love added a boost of spirulina to my smoothies and cacao nibs to my cookies. What’s your favorite way to incorporate superfoods?

Today I’ve added beet root to BROWNIES.


Beet root adds fiber, natural sweetness and a compound called betaine that may help support heart health and digestion.
