- 1 large ripe banana
- 1 cup (250 mL) Milk
- 3 tbsp (45 mL) chia seeds

Tips
Underripe kiwi can be a bit sour, so use honey or maple syrup to sweeten. Chia seeds are high in fibre and omega-3 fatty acids and help to thicken the smoothie.
Sprinkle with nuts for extra protein. Substitute your favourite fruits in similar quantities.
