Roasted strawberry recipes are very popular right now. They’re perfect to use when the strawberries aren’t quite at their prime. Roasting gives them a deliciously sweet flavor. They’re the perfect addition to your smoothies, and this Roasted Strawberry Chia Seed Smoothie will become a family favorite this season.
Disclosure: Stonyfield provided me with coupons for their yogurt and compensated me for this post as part of their Clean Plate Club. Healthy Skoop provided a sample of their vanilla flavored Super Skoop All-in-One nutritional shake as part of this month’s campaign. All opinions are my own!
Warmer months on Martha’s Vineyard mean one thing to my husband and I… working endless hours a day at the seasonal restaurant we work in. So when it comes to cooking at home, it’s quite non-existent, since both my husband and I are working over 12 hours a day.
When Stonyfield introduced me to The Healthy Skoop (USDA Organic, Gluten-Free, Soy-Free, Whey-Free, Dairy-Free, Non-GMO protein powder) I was head over heels with what it promised:
Organic Protein: 20 grams of organic brown rice, pea, and hemp come together to create a complete protein with a complete amino acid profile.
Super Plant Based Nutrition: Each serving touts the antioxidant equivalent of four cups of organic fruits and veggies, plus Omega-3s from plant sources promote heart health and may help regulate cholesterol.
Vitamins and Minerals: 50% recommended daily intake of vitamins and minerals from whole foods so that your body can actually absorb them!
Probiotics and Prebiotics: 1 billion probiotic organisms aid digestive health + 1 gram of prebiotic fiber to nourish healthy gut flora.
Even better, how it delivered on its promises! I’ve never been a big fan of protein powders because they tend to be chalky, inedible, and outright not good, but The Healthy Skoop was none of the above. And when you add roasted strawberry flavor, it’s pure heaven that helps us get through long, tiring work days. Give it a try – you’ll fall head over heels with it too!
I hope you enjoy this healthy roasted strawberry smoothie!
