Ingredients
Smoothie Bowl
- 1 heaping cup organic frozen mixed berries
- 1 small ripe banana, sliced and frozen
- 2-3 Tbsp light coconut or almond milk (plus more as needed)
- 1 scoop plain or vanilla protein powder of choice (optional)
Toppings (optional)
- 1 Tbsp shredded unsweetened coconut (desiccated)
- 1 Tbsp chia seeds
- 1 Tbsp hemp seeds
- Granola
- Fresh fruit such as strawberries
Instructions
- Blend Frozen Fruits: Add the frozen mixed berries and the frozen sliced banana to a blender. Blend on low speed until the fruits break down into small bits but still have some texture.
- Add Liquids and Protein: Pour in 2-3 tablespoons of light coconut or almond milk and add protein powder if using. Blend again on low speed, scraping down the sides as needed, until the mixture reaches a soft-serve consistency similar to ice cream.
- Serve and Top: Scoop the smoothie mixture into one or two serving bowls depending on batch size. Top with your choice of shredded coconut, chia seeds, hemp seeds, granola, fresh strawberries, or nut/seed butter for added texture and nutrition.
- Storage and Serving Tips: Consume fresh for the best taste. Leftovers can be stored in the freezer for 1-2 weeks. Thaw adequately before enjoying if reheated.
