If you are a fan of thicker smoothies, we have a great recipe for you. To get the desired consistency you need to use frozen fruit and ground chia seeds. Chia seeds are great for your health; they contain omega-3.
Ingredients
- 2 tsp chia seeds, ground
- 1 cup yogurt
- 1 banana, frozen
- 2 tbsp peanut butter
- ¼ tsp vanilla extract
Preparation
- Grind your chia seeds which will increase the smoothie’s thickness.
- In a dry blender add chia seeds and process into powder. It’s important that your blender is dry, otherwise, the seeds will stick to the sides.
- Then, add the rest of the ingredients: yogurt, frozen bananas, peanut butter, and vanilla extract. Blend it all together for one minute.
- Scrape down the chunks that didn’t blend and again, give it a good blend for another 30 to 45 seconds, or until it becomes smooth.
