Banana Wild Blueberry Smoothie With Chia Seeds image

Because I use frozen organic wild blueberries for this, I don't need to add any ice cubes. You'll need to soak the chia seeds for several hours or overnight.

Categories     breakfast, easy, shakes and smoothies

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 tablespoon soaked chia seeds (1 teaspoon dry unsoaked)
1 small banana (about 4 ounces without the skin)
1/2 cup frozen organic wild blueberries
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon honey

Steps:

  • To soak the chia seeds, place in a jar or bowl and add 4 tablespoons water for every tablespoon of chia seeds. Place in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight. The seeds and water will be become gelatinous.
  • Scoop up a tablespoon of seeds with the gooey liquid and place in a blender (don't worry, your smoothie won't have this consistency). Add the remaining ingredients and blend for 1 full minute at high speed.

Tips:

  • Adjust the consistency with liquid: The consistency of the smoothie can be adjusted by adding more or less liquid. For a thicker smoothie, use less liquid. For a thinner smoothie, use more liquid.
  • Add a sweetener: If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add a sweetener of your choice. Honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar are all good options.
  • Boost the protein content: To make the smoothie more filling and satisfying, add a scoop of protein powder. Whey protein, pea protein, or hemp protein are all good choices.
  • Add other healthy ingredients: Feel free to add other healthy ingredients to the smoothie, such as spinach, kale, avocado, or chia seeds.
