Delicious Banana Chia Seed Smoothie

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

  1. Grind your chia seeds which will increase the smoothie’s thickness.
  2. 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.
  3. Then, add the rest of the ingredients: yogurt, frozen bananas, peanut butter, and vanilla extract. Blend it all together for one minute.
  4. 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.
