And it is a 10 minutes recipe to feel fresh and hydrated. Perfect during summer or Ramadan (after Iftar or at Suhoor).

Can I meal prep my smoothie ?

Absolutely, you can precut watermelon and strawberries 1 day ahead and place them in a glass jar in the fridge. So the day after, you add the pre-cut fruits, coconut water (fresh is my favorite), lime, goji berries, chia and hemp seeds in a blender.

Strawberries are not in season

This pink smoothie is wonderfully adaptable. Frozen strawberries or raspberries are great alternatives to fresh. If you choose raspberries, a date will likely be needed for sweetness.

Or consider adding fresh pomegranate or red grapes for a unique flavor profile. Embrace the variety and taste the rainbow!

Is this smoothie nutrient-dense?

By blending (vs. juicing) you preserve more nutrients and beneficial compounds. Actually this smoothie recipe contains a lot of vitamins, minerals and fiber too.

Fiber is great because it slows the digestion of the sugar in fruits, it helps to improve digestion health and it keeps you full for a longer period.

By the way, this smoothie has no sugar added and is very low in sugar thanks to the watermelon and strawberries.

Why should I add goji berries, chia seeds and hemp seeds into my smoothie?

Because goji berries add a bit of sweetness to this smoothie and they contain a lot of antioxidants.

Plus, chia seeds and hemps seeds are nutrients booster. By adding them to your smoothie, you can improve your diet for healthy skin, hair and body, especially during Ramadan or if you workout a lot.

First, chia seeds are high in fiber, have protein and they are rich in antioxidants. Secondly, hemp seeds are rich in healthy fat, omega 3 and omega 6. It is great for your heart.
