Ingredients
  

  • Blueberries: 2 cups 480 ml
  • Chia seeds: 3 tablespoons 45 ml
  • Almond milk unsweetened: 1 cup (240 ml)
  • Greek yogurt plain: 1/2 cup (120 ml)
  • Banana: 1 sliced
  • Honey: 1 tablespoon 15 ml
  • Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon 5 ml
  • Granola: 1/2 cup 120 ml
  • Mixed nuts e.g. almonds, walnuts: 1/4 cup (60 ml)
  • Fresh mint leaves: a few for garnish

Method
 

  1. Begin by washing the blueberries thoroughly. This step ensures that you’re not consuming any pesticides or unwanted residues.
  2. In a blender, combine the blueberries, chia seeds, almond milk, Greek yogurt, banana, honey, and vanilla extract.
  3. Blend on high speed until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. Remember, the consistency should be a tad thicker than a regular smoothie.
  4. Once blended to perfection, pour the Blueberry and Chia Seed Smoothie mixture into two bowls.
  5. Generously sprinkle granola over the smoothie base.
  6. Add the mixed nuts on top for that extra crunch and protein punch.
  7. For the final touch, garnish your Blueberry and Chia Seed Smoothie Bowl with a few fresh mint leaves. This will add a refreshing twist to your bowl.

Notes

Ensure your chia seeds have been stored in a cool, dry place to retain their nutrient content.
If you’re not a fan of honey, you can substitute with maple syrup or agave nectar.
You can freeze the blueberries ahead of time. This gives your Blueberry and Chia Seed Smoothie Bowl a more refreshing, chilled taste.
