Recipe Notes

  • Don't skip the step of soaking chia seeds. Chia seeds need to rehydrate for the best texture.
  • Keep pre-portioned watermelon and pineapple chunks frozen together in a container or plastic baggie for simplified prep on busy mornings.
  • Fresh squeezed limes have the best flavor for adding into the smoothie, but bottled lime juice works in a pinch. Substitute 1/4 cup of lime juice for the fresh squeezed juice of two limes.
