Very Berry Coconut Chia Smoothie

Happy Monday! I am so excited to be back and posting new recipes. It’s been a crazy few weeks with me traveling all over the place. I just got back last night from a long stretch that involved a Maryland weekend, followed by a week-long conference in the outskirts of Boston and a weekend exploring Boston with the hubs where we had an amazing time staying with one of my girlfriends. I will share with you pictures and details of the trip later this week on a BEYOND THE OVEN post. For now, it’s a recipe!! This very berry chia smoothie is one of my new favorite ways to start my day, especially on a hot summer day.

After an overhaul in my schedule, I am itching to get back to a routine. That includes getting my breakfast back in line. I LOVE fresh berries and the summer is the perfect time to enjoy them at their prime. You will always find pints of berries in our fridge and I am constantly throwing them in everything we are eating. Anything from salads, desserts, or in this new favorite smoothie; a very berry coconut chia smoothie.

I made this smoothie a few weeks ago when school was hectic and I’ve been enjoying it every morning since including today as I try to get back in the game. It’s packed with lots of berries (duh!) and nutrients.

I use whatever berries I have in hand which that day were raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries. Coconut milk and toasted coconut flakes added in my favorite flavor and of course a heaping serving of chia seeds for a boost of fiber and nutrients.
