Strawberry Banana Smoothie

Strawberry Banana Smoothie with Chia Seed and Maple

By: Laura Sorkin

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Servings: 1 drink

Strawberries and bananas are a classic combo for smoothies but we bumped it up a notch by adding some chia seeds. They don’t add any flavor but make it a tad thicker and boost the nutrients and protein. Adding ice will make it colder but also dilutes the drink so it is up to you as to whether you include it.
