PALEO RED VELVET BROWNIE PIE (MADE WITH BEETS!)
There is a secret ingredient in this red velvet brownie pie you guys. I used BEETS to make them red velvet and add some extra nutrients to the dessert. I used Organic Cooked Beets and they do not overpower it and you really don’t taste them. But you are eating veggies and dessert at the same time…CRAZY!
