Fruit tris with chia seeds.

Today I want to offer you a fruit drink that I really like for both breakfast and towards the afternoon and that is made with:

  • 1 Banana
  • 1 Orange (or 2 if they are small)
  • 10 Strawberries
  • Chia seeds (2 or 3 chucchiaini)

Three fruit with chia seeds

To make the fruit tris with chia seeds, my advice is to use an extractor and not a blender because turning slower there is less dispersion of nutrients but if there is no you have it is fine a blender.

Ps. The banana and oranges without peeling I recommend!

I drink this drink on the spot but if you want to make more of it keep it in the fridge.

If you like comment and follow me on social profiles!
