Blueberry Chia Smoothie

Prep: 7 minutes
Total: 7 minutes
Yield:1 person

Ingredients

Instructions

  • If you plan to drink the smoothie immediately: combine all ingredients in a blender and blend on high speed til totally smooth.
  • If you plan to drink the smoothie a little more leisurely: combine blueberries, chia seeds, banana, and 1/2 cup milk and blend on high speed til smooth. Wait about 5 minutes, giving the chia seeds plenty of time to gel up the mixture. Add the remaining 1/2 cup milk and blend again until smooth.

Notes

The chia seeds will gel up the mixture, so either drink the smoothie immediately (no need to chug it or anything, but don't let it sit around for a while!) or follow the second approach!
