Young and Raw Smoothie Challenge | Week 3
Another great week of the smoothie challenge! Time is flying and I am still loving having these smoothies everyday! Today’s recipe was light and refreshing! Here’s today’s recipe:
- 1 cup strawberry
- 1 cup mango
- 2 cup greens of choice
- 1 handful mint
- 1 cup coconut water or regular water
This week I had a chance to go to the Keweenaw Co-Op and buy some Chia Seeds! Chia seeds were one of the optional superfoods you could add to your smoothies. At first, I thought they would ruin the smoothie and be like raspberry seeds that get stuck in your teeth! They’re actually really similar to tapioca. They absorb some of the liquid and become gel-like. It sounds strange, but I looove them! They add a little protein (3g) to the smoothie, which helps me stay fuller, longer.
