Green Smoothie
Every morning we try to have a green smoothie. Packed full of 5-6 servings of fresh fruits and vegetables! This is a great way to start the day and not have to chew down another salad. We love to put chia seeds into the smoothie. These mild and nutrient dense seeds are great for weight loss, regulating blood sugar levels and a whole lot more!

I bet your kids will even love it!
I usually like to use 3-4 different kinds of fruit and at least 2 cups of your choice of leafy greens. Place all ingredients into blender and enjoy!
8-12oz. water
1 banana
3 tablespoons chia seeds
1/2 cup applesauce or 1 chopped apple
1-2 cups baby spinach, 1-2 cups Swiss chard or any other leafy green you want
5-6 frozen strawberries
1 fresh peach or mango slices if you have them.
