I really love me a good smoothie for lunch. It is easy to take on the go, and healthy. This smoothie I really like because of the energy/caffeine boost you can get from it. This is really important for college students. (Am I right???) Plus convenience is huge. You can make this the night before and put it in the fridge, easy to grab on your way to class.
Blueberry, Chia, Energy Smoothie
1 C Water
2 Green Tea Bags ( I used my fav flavored green tea that nicely compliments the blueberries)
2 C Blueberries (fresh or frozen)
1 T Silvered Almonds
1 T Chia Seeds
1 C Fresh Spinach
Ice Cubes
2. In a blender add cooled tea, blueberries, almonds, chia seeds, and spinach. Blend until smooth.
3. Add ice to create the consistency you desire. I like mine like a think icy. :) yum!
This smoothie is high in antioxidants and omega-3. Your body will thank you for the raw nutrition.
Enjoy!
