easy and tastes good. can i use chia seeds next time? i have a lot i'm trying to use up
Gigi & Sersie
Hi Dani. We're so glad you enjoyed this smoothie. Yes, you can use chia seeds, but we recommend you start by using half of what the recipe calls for because it will alter the texture/consistency and thicken more as it sits. You can always add more if the consistency is okay for you.
Cassandra
Is there another option other than coconut water that could be used in this recipe? I tend to shy away from coconut anything for other health reasons.
Gigi & Sersie
Hi Cassandra - you can use half regular water and half orange juice. Or all regular water.
