Strawberry Chia Watermelon Smoothie

Refreshing, hydrating, and the perfect summer breakfast or snack!

Serves: 2

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups (240 g) fresh watermelon, cubed (black seeds removed)

1 cup (120 g) frozen strawberries

1/2 ripe banana (50 g), previously peeled, chopped and frozen

1/2 - 3/4 cup (120-180 ml) unsweetened plain almond milk

1 lime, juiced (~30 ml)

1 Tbsp chia or hemp seeds (optional)

Instructions

Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until creamy and smooth, adding more almond milk to thin, or more frozen strawberries or ice to thicken.

Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more lime for acidity, banana for sweetness, or watermelon for a more intense watermelon flavor.

Serves 2 - top with additional chia seeds to mock watermelon seeds! Best when fresh, though leftovers keep covered in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.
