Method
 

Soak the Chia Seeds
  1. Start by measuring 1-2 tablespoons of chia seeds. Place them in a small bowl and add about 1/2 cup of water or your choice of milk. Allow them to soak for 10-15 minutes.
Prepare Your Ingredients
  1. While the chia seeds are soaking, gather your favorite fresh fruits and leafy greens. Consider adding a liquid base for creaminess.
Blend the Ingredients
  1. Once the chia seeds have soaked, combine them with your chosen fruits and leafy greens in a blender. Add honey or agave syrup if desired.
Adjust the Consistency
  1. Blend until smooth. If the smoothie is too thick, add more liquid gradually until you reach your desired consistency.
Serve and Enjoy
  1. Pour your smoothie into a glass or bowl and top with granola, fresh fruit slices, or a sprinkle of nuts and seeds.
