Strawberry Smoothie Recipe – With Pineapple

This strawberry smoothie recipe comes from annies-eats.net. In the original recipe, she used ground flax seed but, if you have been following us for any time at all, you know that we really prefer Chia seed. Chia is a natural seed that adds a large measure of nutrition including heart healthy, cholesterol fighting omega 3 fatty acids and antioxidants. Even better, unlike Flax, Chia seed doesn’t have a taste of its own so adding it here won’t change the delicious results.

This is a basic smoothie recipe that is perfect for tweaking in lots of different ways.

8 oz. low-fat vanilla or plain yogurt
1 large banana
1½ cups chopped pineapple, frozen
1½ cups frozen strawberries
2-3 tbsp. Chia seed
¼ cup milk
