This simple, nutritious smoothie is deliciously summery when made with fresh blueberries. However, it can also be made with any frozen berries. Chia seeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and also contain fiber and protein. They swell beautifully in liquid, resulting in a smoothie that's thick, pudding-like, smooth, and delicious.
