Ingredients
  1. 2 tsp soaked chia (soak for 10-15 min in water)
  2. 1 cup fruit
  3. 2 cups almond milk
  4. Ice (optional - if using frozen fruit, ice is not needed)
Instructions
  1. Place all the ingredients into blender and blend until desired consistency. If too thick, add water to thin.
  2. Optional: soak your seeds in the milk instead of water
  3. Be careful about not adding to many seeds to your blender because chia, when soaked in water, becomes gelatinous and will make a very very thick smoothie.
Notes
  1. Try substituting coconut milk for almond milk for a different flavour. When eaten raw, chia seeds are excellent sources of omega 3 and dietary fiber.
