These look great! I've been having at least one smoothie a day since somewhere last month too. My breakfast smoothies are the hardest to come up with I think. Sometimes it's just too heavy on an empty stomach. Unfortunately I can't have almond milk, that would definitely help make some delicious smoothies!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work! And if you find something divine, let me know!
I've been wanting to use beet juice, but often don't like the taste, but today I finally made a nice one:
-beet juice
-coconut water
-1/2 banana
-handful of grapes

Holy cow, these all look so good! I have never heard of a chia seed, but I will definitely google it! :)
