Welcome Spring! And thank goodness for warm weather! We have been playing outside nonstop since it stopped raining and it got above 50 degrees. Since we had Spring Break this week and we are on somewhat of a “stay-cation” this smoothie was my attempt at a break from our normal routine. We whirred them together in our blender and poured some into a popsicle mold! The rest we snacked on in the afternoon breeze, it was wonderful!
I sort of made this up in a pinch. I added a little of this and that but I wrote what I approximately did. Hopefully I eye-balled it correctly!
Just found this awesome article about chia seeds! Read up!
Strawberry Smoothie
In case you can’t see that fancy new text (yep, I’m fancy now!)
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cup frozen strawberries (I kept one aside to put on top)
- 1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup juice (I used a strawberry and watermelon but white grape would be good)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 TBL honey
- 1 TBL chia seeds (optional)
Directions:
Whir together in a blender for 1-2 min. Enjoy! And enjoy we did!
Here are some pics of my crazies after smoothies were consumed:

I made the smoothies this morning for Mom and me as a breakfast drink. Delicious. I didn’t use the chia seeds, though; so I guess I don’t need to worry about the grass growing on my head.
Love the photos! Mwah! BTW, if I eat chia seeds will grass grow on my head?
