This is one of my favourite smoothies — it’s so simple, delicious, and packed with goodness!
Berries are rich in antioxidants, fibre, vitamins, and minerals, making this smoothie a wonderful way to nourish your body while tasting delicious.
Very Berry Chia Smoothie — Recipe
Start with a large smoothie glass or jar to make sure you have enough room for everything.
In your smoothie glass
- ½ cup yoghurt of your choice
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
Mix together and let it sit while you make the smoothie.
In the blender
- 1 large ripe banana
- 1 tablespoon virgin coconut oil (melt it first if solid)
- 1 tablespoon My Daily Superfood Blend
- Little or no water — only if needed
Blend until smooth. Then add ½ cup frozen mixed berries and blend again until the berries are combined.
Tips
Add the frozen berries after blending in the coconut oil. If you add them first, the cold berries will harden the coconut oil, making the smoothie less creamy.
In colder weather, don’t add too much ice or frozen fruit, as your smoothie may become too cold. Add just enough to make it creamy.
Optional, for extra sweetness
- 1 tablespoon honey
- A handful of sweet grapes
- A couple of dates
Pour the smoothie into your glass with the chia and yoghurt and stir. Watch the beautiful white and purple colours mix together. It’s as pretty as it is delicious!
Grab a long spoon, take a moment to savour every bite, and enjoy!
Love,
