In my opinion, this is just a great way to start your day. If you are on the run or just don't want a heavy breakfast, this is great! You get tons of vitamins and nutrients AND protein from the chia seeds! I much rather have something refreshing and boosting in the morning than something heavy that weighs me down.
This is definitely a meal replacement! I couldn't imagine having this along side a bowl of oats or a veggie scramble.
Fruit Boost Smoothie
What I also especially admired about this smoothie is the
color. Many times while making smoothie concoctions, the color becomes
mute and murky due to the variety of produce thrown in. I made sure I
stuck with yellows, oranges and reds to maintain the fresh and vibrant
color.
Ingredients/Directions:
1 banana
1 apple
1 orange
1 stalk celery
5 strawberries
1-2 tbsp chia seeds
1/2 c water
ice
Throw all of the above in your blender and blend away....that's all!
Superb! Will add chia seeds to my smoothie recipe
