To put this simply, I am obsessed with these. They are fudgy and the absolute PERFECT velvetty brownie texture. I know that is a very personal subject - the perfect brownie texture. Are you a gooey and chewy kind of brownie lover, or more of a cake-like brownie person? I like FUDGY. And kind of gooey. And moist! That is these. And the red velvetty-ness makes them perfect for the holiday season!! What is also pretty cool about these deliciously fudgy and smooth red velvet brownies is that in addition to being low-fat, added-sugar-free, gluten-free, and only 73 calories each, they are also loaded with veggies!! Three different kinds to be exact, and you would never be able to tell... How's THAT for a brownie.

These are a healthy and low-calorie version of Red Velvet Brownies that are totally delicious! Vegan, gluten-free, sugar-free, low-fat, and free of artificial colors.
Ingredients: makes 9 servings
1 cup gluten-free quick oats
1/4 cup water
1 medium beet (150-200g)*
1 yellow squash (225g)
1/2 cup cooked or canned black beans
1/4 cup cocoa
3/4 cup erythritol (I use Swerve sweetener, granulated) (or other granulated sweetener of choice)
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp xanthan gum
1.5 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp liquid stevia
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp natural butter flavor
*Note: the Vitamix easily blends a raw beet, but if your blender doesn't then steam your beet first to soften before blending. Also, these are even better the day after you make them!!
