The Rawtarian's Thoughts
By The RawtarianOh ho hum, another smoothie recipe, right? Wrong!
This raw strawberry milk recipe is divine. Trust me. The texture is wonderful. Sirova, the recipe's originator, compares the taste to standard strawberry milk--that thick, syrupy smooth sweetness. Yum! This recipe really does take me back to my childhood.
Warning:
Do not attempt unless you have a Vitamix, a Blendtec, or another high-powered blender! Chia seeds won't blend well in a regular blender.
This recipe is perfect for a Summer evening. And great for kids, they'll love it.
True to Rawtarian fashion, it only has just a few ingredients. When it comes to this raw strawberry milk recipe, simpler really is better.

Hi,
Are you suppose to soak the chia seeds first? I tried blending in vitamix but the seeds didn't blend up, stayed black and splattered all over the blender sides.

I have a blender thats not a vitamix etc but is a fairly good average blender. I can do recipies like this in it. I just grind nuts first then add the rest of the ingredients, bit by bit if necessary. Chia seeds etc can be ground in a coffee grinder first as well.

Raw strawberry milk recipe
I didn’t have frozen strawberries so I used regular strawberries and this was very bland and watery. I think it would have been much better and creamier if I had used frozen.

Raw strawberry milk recipe
This smoothie wasn't "exciting". Ijust tastes like water. Its missing something, or there is too much water in the recipe.

Hi you don't mention that chia seeds needs to be soaked for at least 20mins, if not and are consumed before take water from the body,,,,and can dehydrate,,,
The Rawtarian

Good point, Amanda. In this recipe, 2 cups of water are added, so dehydration shouldn't be a problem. But you're right, chia seeds swell up and absorb water - this can cause problems in some people. Anyone interested can check out: https://www.therawtarian.com/skinny-chia-seeds

The simplest ideas are the best. I have just started using chia seeds, not a convert yet. I'll try this.

Perhaps the strawberry milk will help convert you... even just a little bit more! :)

Do you think this would be a good thing to eat for breakfast?

Hi Eggy,
It's a bit sweet for breakfast - try the green smoothie instead

Wanted to make this (or possibly another nut free recipe-I haven't looked through all yet) for a cooking activity at my daughter's nursery school. About how many servings do you think this makes?

Hi Annie,
For adults, this makes two medium servings :) Or 1 large

Hi Jennie, no soaking is required. Next time you could get the mixture blending and smoothie like, then stop, add chia seeds, and continue blender. It sounds like your blender isn't the greatest :)

So, if you don't have a Vita Mix, would ground Chia seeds work as well?

HI APRIL AND JENNIE, WHAT I DO IS SOAK MY CHIA SEEDS IN WATER FOR 15 MINUTES, THAT SOFTENS THEM UP, THEN I POUR THE LOT IN THE BLENDER

Great tip Darinka

Yes, ground chia seeeds would work exactly the same if your blender isn't quite as good. :) Either is fine
