Color Me Red

This recipe is a variant of Color Me Pink and is a great way to add variety to a weight-loss program. Beets are substituted for the raspberries here. Trust me, it tastes great. The beet tops are not used in this recipe, but save them for another juice.

Ingredients

2 medium-large beets
1 large pink grapefruit, peeled

Preparation

  1. Juice the beet then the grapefruit.
