1/2 cup frozen peaches
1 tablespoon chia seeds

I decided to make my own smoothie this morning using everything I had. It was amazing! I was a little nervous that I would be wasting A LOT of food if it wasn't good. Thankfully that wasn't the case :] I do wish I had spinach or lettuce on hand to add in. It's just not a juice or smoothie without spinach! This made 8 cups which I mostly split with Frank {I took a little more!}.
