Banana Blueberry Smoothie

I wasn't feeling terribly hungry tonight, so instead of cooking dinner I made a banana and blueberry smoothie!  For extra goodness and to ensure I still received the nutrients I need, I also added chia seeds and almond milk!  OMG, it was soooooo tasty! :)  My daughter also loved it!

Banana Blueberry Smoothie with Chia Seeds & Almond Milk

Ingredients

3 frozen bananas
1 handful fresh blueberries
1 tbsp coconut oil
1 tbsp chia seeds
3 cups (approx) almond milk


Peel and cut the bananas into chunks and wash the blueberries.

Put the bananas, blueberries, coconut oil, chia seeds and approx. 3 cups of almond milk into a blender.  Turn it on and blend until smooth.

Pour into 3 glasses and drink.

Enjoy!

Chia Seed Smoothie

I have recently started incorporating chia seeds into some of my recipes.  I love their versatility and they are a real superfood when it comes to healthy goodness.  This is what I had for breakfast this morning.  It was delicious!

Ingredients

1 banana - I used one that I had in the freezer
1/2 cucumber - I left the skin on, but you can peel it if you wish
2 handfuls frozen blueberries
3/4 cup orange/passionfruit juice - any juice would work, or water
1 tsp coconut oil
1 tbs chia seeds


Firstly, peel the banana and cut into chunks.  Drop them into a blender.  Cut the cucumber into chunks and drop them into the blender with the banana.  Add the blueberries, juice, coconut oil and chia seeds.

Blend until smooth and the consistency is how you want it.

Drink.  Enjoy!
