A milkshake glass with strawberries and banana — Homemade Smoothie with Strawberries and Banana

My Rhea has a smoothie for breakfast every single morning. She will have her cereal, sometimes even her pancakes, and yet she needs her breakfast smoothie every single day. This is why I have shared quite a few smoothies and milkshakes with you.

Chia seeds – just 1 tsp is plenty. I like the little added thickness it adds to the drink. Of course, feel free to omit the chai altogether. Also, I like to add a few bloomed chia seeds for garnish. I have listed how to make that yourself below too.
Fruit – I am using banana and strawberry as my fruit combination. You can use more or less of the banana or strawberries
Protein powder – This is optional but also adds thickness to the smoothie. You can also add 1 tbsp oats instead.
Ice – If you use frozen fruits you can omit the ice. A cold smoothie is so much tastier.
