Can you tell me what the benefits are from Chia seeds…..
So many! Protein, fibre, omega 3, calcium, iron, and when you combine with liquid it turns sort of gelatinous which is apparently very cleansing for the body 🙂
I am really into chia seeds at the moment and this smoothie sounds so refreshing and perfect! Great for end of summer slurping.
Thanks Joanne!
We’re cramming in last-minute summer stuffs over here too! Watermelon smoothies are great – and I love your straw 🙂
Haha, thanks! It functions terribly as a straw… but it looks good in pics 🙂
