I am not exactly a smoothie person. I would so much rather be eating fruit than drinking them but every now and then I just don’t have time for breakfast and making a smoothie takes mere seconds. I made this healthy smoothie recipe a while ago and really, really liked the final result. The smoothie was creamy, slightly sweet, a little tart and very filling. I loved the addition of chia seeds which added loads of fibre and protein and kept me full and satisfied until lunch time. Using frozen berries instead of fresh berries meant I didn’t have to add ice but if you don’t have frozen berries, feel free to substitute with whatever you have on hand. Blueberries, raspberries, blackberries and strawberries all work well.

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup coconut milk/water
- 1/2 cup-1 cup cold water
- 1 banana broken into pieces
- 2 cups frozen berries
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon honey optional
- juice of 1 orange
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
Instructions
- Combine all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
- Pour into glasses and serve immediately.
yumm! This smoothie looks delicious! I just bought some chia seeds! Can’t wait to try this out 😀
