THIS WEEK'S CRAVINGS #70 (SMOOTHIES & SHAKES) and Fruit Smoothie with Chia Seeds

THIS WEEK'S CRAVINGS Linky Party #70
(Smoothies and Shakes)
Fruit Smoothie w/Chia Seeds
We are forever in love with Jamba Juice, but to make them at home just never quite works out. I still try though, over and over again. I have already posted a few FUN smoothie recipes on my blog that we all love and now I have a new one to add to the list. This one was super duper tasty.

Today, is our last day in Minnesota (and for us California girls) we are freezing our butts off! But, dancing is my girls passion and that's why we are here. (I hope to report back to you all that we did GREAT!)
My girls have been dancing for 10 years now... and we are so excited that they will continue doing so in college. It's going to be an amazing experience for them and I can't wait to watch them grow into young adults.


Fruit Smoothie with Chia Seeds
created by me, Tina Hudgens

1 cup of cut-up fruit (melon, cantaloupe and watermelon work great)
2 bananas
10-15 strawberries
1 cup apple juice
2 containers of yogurt (about 1 cup)
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp Chia Seeds

Throw this all into your food processor and blend. (Sometimes I add some ice, just depends how cold you like it!) This was a great smoothie.

Makes about 4 small cups, or 2 large smoothies.
