Berry Chia Smoothie or Mixed Berries with Yogurt

Berry Chia Smoothie – Summer Breakfast Drinks

This berry chia smoothie is a delicious blend of berries mixed with creamy yogurt and chia seeds to give your day a perfect pickup be it for breakfast or mid day snack.

What on your breakfast table on summer weekends?

We’ve come to make it a habit to have some smoothies for breakfast over the weekends during summer. Well, with the summer weather we have – it’s gets really really hot!! So often the kids want nothing to do with food!! Mama make something to drink.
So smoothies and milkshakes are on the tab!  I love this blend of berries – this week we had some fresh strawberries and I used a few frozen raspberries and mixed berries I had.. Yum! The fruits you use will determine the color of your smoothie.

Let’s talk ingredients and substitutes 

This is so easy to make – and so simple, you going to love it.

• Fruit – I am using Banana and strawberry as my fruit combination but go ahead and substitute the combination you like
• Yogurt – I prefer to use low fat fruit yogurt. But there is enough fruit in there even if you use just plain yogurt. For a lighter version just replace the yogurt with milk
• Honey – Berries can be sweet but also tart. Sometimes a little honey can do the trick with sweetening such a drink.
• Ice – I do use ice but if I use frozen fruits I omit the ice so it’s not too Icy. It’s a personal choice here.
• Chia – in my previous post strawberry banana chia smoothie we spoke so much about chia seeds and the health benefits of chia.. I think it’s a great addition to any diet. Read more about chia seeds
