Chef's Notes

Substitutions
Use any organic berries you have on hand — raspberries, blackberries, strawberries, and blueberries all work well!

The goal with this smoothie bowl is to provide essential omega-3s in the most delicious way. Feel free to double up on your favorite omega-3 foods and omit others if you’d like. For example, top with extra walnuts in place of chia or add extra chia in place of flax meal. You can’t go wrong!

Storage
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Note that it’s better to store the base separately from the toppings since chia and flax absorb liquid. Therefore, the longer they’re mixed together with the base the more likely they’ll thicken the base quite a bit!
