A healthy and nutritious homemade smoothie


In my previous blog, Chia Seeds: An Ancient American Super Food, the article said it will cost $20 for a pound. Hurray! I was able to get a pound of organic raw Chia seeds at Whole Food Market yesterday for $11.99.



So today I just made right away a healthy and delicious homemade blueberry smoothie. It is easy to make, cheap and delicious!

Do you want to give a try? In a blender, add 2 cups of blueberries, 2 cups non-fat frozen yogurt, 1 1/2 cups soy milk, 2 tbsp ground golden flaxseed, 2 tbsp chia seeds... and voila! Why buying all those already made at the market with additives, preservatives, colorants, etc, etc? Luckily, I don't have sweet teeth but you can add sugar, honey, or agave nectar.
