Colorful Smoothie Bowl
Ingredients:
For the Smoothie Base:
1 frozen banana (for creaminess)
1/2 cup frozen mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)
1/2 cup frozen mango or pineapple (for color and sweetness)
1/2 cup Greek yogurt or plant-based yogurt (for creaminess)
1/4 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
1 teaspoon spirulina powder (optional, for a green color boost)
1 teaspoon acai powder (optional, for a purple hue)
For the Toppings:
1/2 banana (sliced)
Fresh blueberries
Edible flowers (like violets or hibiscus) for decoration
Granola (optional, for crunch)
Chia seeds or flaxseeds (optional, for added nutrition)
Instructions:
Prepare the Smoothie Base:
In a blender, combine the frozen banana, mixed berries, mango or pineapple, Greek yogurt, almond milk, and sweetener (if using).
Add spirulina and acai powder if you'd like to enhance the color and nutrition of the smoothie base.
Blend until smooth and creamy. You may need to pause and scrape down the sides to ensure everything blends well. If the mixture is too thick, add a bit more milk to reach your desired consistency.
Assemble the Smoothie Bowl:
Pour the smoothie into a bowl. Smooth out the top with a spoon for a nice, even base.
Decorate:
Arrange the banana slices in a fan shape or any design you prefer.
Add fresh blueberries and edible flowers around the bowl for a beautiful and fresh touch.
If you like, sprinkle some granola, chia seeds, or flaxseeds on top for texture and extra nutrients.
Serve:
Serve immediately with a wooden spoon or any spoon of your choice. Enjoy this colorful, nutritious, and Instagram-worthy smoothie bowl!
This smoothie bowl is perfect for a light breakfast, post-workout snack, or a refreshing treat any time of day.
