Tips from the Chef
Use frozen berries to give the smoothie a naturally chilled texture without watering it down.
Chia seeds help thicken the smoothie and provide omega-3 fats and fiber, suitable for low FODMAP diets in small amounts.
If you prefer a thinner smoothie, add more coconut milk or a splash of water.
Maple syrup is optional; adjust sweetness to taste.
Make sure to use canned coconut milk without additives for a creamy texture and low FODMAP compliance.
