NOURISHING FRUIT SMOOTHIE
Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen fruit (strawberries, raspberries, blackberries or blueberries)
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 1 tbs. chia seeds
- 2 tbs. honey to taste
- 1 to 2 tbs. coconut oil optional - adding coconut oil boosts the nourishing value of this smoothie
Instructions
- Blend in a blender until smooth. I like to blend the fruit and yogurt, until smooth, and then add the honey and coconut oil, and blend; then while the blender is running, add the chia seeds. It is quite thick, just blending the frozen fruit and yogurt together.
- At this point it's more of a pulsing of the blender, and moving the fruit and yogurt around with a spoon. But you don't want to add additional liquid, because when you add honey, it really thins out. You won't have any trouble sipping this through a straw.
- Enjoy! This recipe makes 16 ounces. If you want, you can multiply this recipe by 1.5, or even 2, and it should still fit in a blender.
