3. Red Velvet Protein Cake

If artificial food coloring and insane amounts of sugar aren't your jam, try this ultra-moist, gorgeously vibrant red velvet protein cake made with roasted beets! I promise, the beet flavor is almost undetectable and actually blends amazingly well with the cream cheese frosting.

That being said, if you're afraid to try beets in a cake, just substitute an equal measure of baked sweet potato plus 1-2 tablespoons of red food coloring.
