This slightly sweet and creamy Chia Almond Delight Snack Smoothie recipe is perfect for breakfast, a snack, or a healthy dessert. Additionally, this smoothie is also super versatile! Have fun customizing it to your own taste.
This delicious recipe was adapted from Chia: The Complete Guide to the Ultimate Superfood* by Wayne Coates, PhD. As noted in his book, both the chia and the almonds in this recipe really amp up the health factor of this smoothie!
In fact, chia is such an amazing superfood that I like to have some almost every day! I can easily get some chia in at breakfast time with this yummy smoothie or a make-ahead chia pudding. But if I'm feeling more carbs at breakfast time, I love tossing some chia seeds into some banana or jam-filled muffins.
