Chia Green Juice




JUICE!

This recipe is perfect for mid-morning snack or afternoon pick-me-up
You can do fresh squeezed for optimal nutrients or use the juices I have listed in the recipe. Either way, it is sweet and satisfying. Chia seeds add fiber, protein, and antioxidents. Triple threat.





1 Heaping TBSP hydrated chia seeds*
1 part Organic Mighty Greens Juice**
1 part Organic Orange Juice

*I hydrate my chia seeds overnight in coconut water, adds great flavor to any juice/salad dressing/sauce


FEEL FREE TO CREATE YOUR OWN GREEN JUICE- I find using this one saves time, money, energy, and dishes. (I hate dishes) 


**SUJA Essentials is USDA Organic Mighty Greens juice, including apple, celery, cucumber, kale, collard Greens, lemon, mint tea, spinach, ginger, spirulina, chlorella, barley grass, alfalfa grass


I recommend putting a splash of OJ in the chia seeds and stirring to smooth out all the lumps before adding the remaining liquid

Healthy Brekky Options

A few requirements for my breakfasts- they must be able to be assembled around 5-10 minutes, and served with a nice cup of Colombian coffee- Here are a couple of my go-to recipes for breakfast

HOT & COLD Combo-
1 serving hot oatmeal
1/3 c cold Chia Seed pudding 
(Chia seeds soaked overnight in coconut milk)
Fresh Seasonal Fruit
Small handful of granola for some crunch!


No time for Chia Seeds? 

No Problem.

1 Serving hot oatmeal
Fresh Seasonal fruit (banana, strawberry, blueberry)
1 TBSP Organic shredded coconut flakes
2 TBSP crunchy cinnamon Granola
Drizzle honey on top & serve!
