Strawberry Chia Syrup

I am telling you for the 3,456th time to buy a Vitamix machine. It's the best thing that ever happened to my eating clean lifestyle. Plus, it comes with a 7 year warranty! Oh, and basically self cleans itself. 

Chia seeds are packed full of fiber, protein, antioxidants and Omega-3s. The Vitamix does a fantastic job at making them disappear so there is no trace of them. Read more about Chia Seeds here: Chia Seeds {Nature's Tiny Powerhouse} 

I made this with strawberries we picked this past weekend with the kids! Teaching your child that food doesn't just magically show up on a store shelf is a very valuable life lesson!
