Today, I made these tasty vegan & Gluten-Free smoothies as a nice drinkable breakfast for myself. I loved this great combo. I know you will love it too!
Recipe: For 5 cups = 1250 ml
Ingredients:
2 cups normal soy milk or your favourite vegan milk.
2 cups freshly cut up mango ( mangoes peeled & large hard interior removed, cut into bite sized chunks )
3 fresh clementines, peeled & seeds removed
2 tablespoons black chia seeds:
Method:
1. Take your Vitamix & place the ingredients, except the chia seeds in this order into your Vitamix container. Place fitting lid on & your tamper in it. Mix everything on high-speed for about 30 seconds to 1 minute or until it is all finely mixed up. Place the tamper up & down so that your ingredients go into the blades. Turn high-speed off & turn your machine gradually from 10 to 1 & turn low-speed off. Now, add 2 tablespoons of your mixed chia seeds. Mix with a whisk into the smoothy liquid. Pour into see through glasses & leave them for about 15 to 20 minutes because the chia seeds will soak up a bit of the smoothy liquid & they taste strange but nice!
Or enjoy them straight away with a thicker straw. I placed the other 3 glasses into my fridge for later use. Enjoy, my lovely ones!

Happy 2013 and have a great week!
Thanks, Juliana! Try it!

Oooh thabnks so much, my friend!

Well done you! That’s impressive but well deserved
Love the idea of adding chia seeds to a smoothie. This looks delicious!
Thanks!
Enjoy it too, dear Saskia!
Love mango Sophie! You’re going to convince me to heat more healthily!
yes, that is my mission!
Love the ingredients here, Sophie! Mangoes and clementines! Yum!
Indeed, yes, indeed! xxx
This makes me think of that song ‘”Oh my Clementine…”
Hahahahhahha!
Chia seeds sure are the “It” ingredient lately. What a refreshing drink for any time of day.
That is so true!
Looks fantastic, if I had a mango I’d make one right now
yes, I bought a few a few days ago, they were cheap!
Ooooh….that looks wonderfully healthy and refreshing! Would love that for any time.
That is indeed a very tasty smoothy!
I don’t know what Chia seeds are, never heard of them!! But I really want to try this as I loooove mangos
Just click onto the link of the chia seeds. That will lead you to a page where it will be explained!
You always come up with the most intresting flavor combinations, Sophie. What a delicious way to start the day.
Thanks, Cathy! Enjoy the drinks!
Mangoes are in season now so I can try a non vegan version of this
Yep!
Sounds great. You could also grind the seeds into a powder and add it that way. I have a dry blade that I use, but you could use a pestle and mortar. I do this with quinoa and add the powder to smoothies.
I don’t want to grind it at all!
This looks delicious. Do you think if you did grind the seeds like Jacqueline suggested that there is more nutritional value?
?
I’m collecting smoothie recipes to make in my Vitamix – good one.
Thanks!
Perfect timing, i just bought my first package of chia and my daughter is crazy about mango right now…two happy ladies you have made us!
Mango & chia seeds is a perfect crazy combo!
Yummy too!
We are big fans of smoothies, and chia seeds in particular. Would make ours with coconut milk, though. Great post
I didn’t want to use coconut milk because it is too fatting though!
Happy New Year to you too Sophie! Hope you have a great start in 2013. I wanna explore how to use chia seeds, gotta get some first from a health store first . I love the idea of your smoothie, v refreshing!
Thanks, sweety!

Healthy and refreshing. The perfect vitamin boost for curing those January blues.
Mango and clementine, I think is a match made in heaven.
All the best in the new year
