Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by gathering your fresh ingredients: 1 cup of diced ripe watermelon, 1 cup of blueberries, 1 cup of almond milk, and 1 scoop of your favorite protein powder. If you’re opting for chia seeds, have them ready as well. Place them all on your countertop for easy access, ensuring your fruits are clean and cut properly for blending.
  2. In a high-speed blender, combine the watermelon, blueberries, almond milk, and protein powder. Secure the lid tightly and blend on high for 30-45 seconds until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency.
  3. If you’ve chosen to include chia seeds, sprinkle them into the blender and blend the mixture again on low for 10-15 seconds to incorporate them evenly.
  4. Once your smoothie has reached the desired consistency, pour it into a tall glass and enjoy immediately for the freshest taste.
