Today I'm making a refreshing, healthy smoothie with strawberry, banana, lime juice, a bit of spinach and chia seeds. No refined sugars. Very high in fibre and potassium.

Equipment
1 High speed blender
1 large smoothie glass
Ingredients
3/4cupfrozen strawberries
1mediumbanana
1/2cupspinach
1limejuiced (or 1.5 Tbsp bottled)
1.5 cupunsweetened almond milkor other non-dairy milk
1tbspchia seedsoptional
Instructions
In a high speed blender, add all ingredients. Blend on high until smooth.
Pour into a large smoothie glass. Drink immediately.
Notes
Substitute fresh strawberries for frozen. If you use fresh strawberries, add 3-4 ice cubes to the blender. Substitute kale for spinach. You may need to add a touch of maple syrup or monk fruit sweetener to overcome the bitter taste of the kale. If you have a sweet tooth or you are feeding this smoothie to a child, add 1 Tbsp (or more) of maple syrup. Smoothie tastes best if it is consumed right away.
