Ingredients

SMOOTHIE

 

TOPPING

PREPARATION

  • Melt the coconut oil in one cup* of hot water.
  • Put inside the blender cup all the ingredients (including the water with the melted coconut oil)  and mix for 2 minutes.
  • Let the mix rest for 5 minutes then blend again.
  • Serve in a large glass and let it rest for about 15 minutes to half an hour, in order for the flax seeds and chia seeds to expand, creating a thicker consistency.
    (Place in the fridge if you prefer to drink it chilled.)

* (1 US Cup = 240 ml)

TOPPING

  • Cut strawberries in small pieces and put on top of smoothie. (Add some strawberries for additional freshness)
  • Sprinkle your favourite mixed seeds. In this case, I added my personal mix of pumpkin, sunflower, sesame, and goji berries.
If you would like a bit of extra sweetness add some date syrup or maple syrup.
For more intense flavour, substitute the water by almond milk or any other type of vegetable milk you enjoy.
