Blueberry Power Smoothie Bowl
This a.m. all-star Blueberry Power Smoothie Bowl is so thick and creamy. Super EASY to make with a variety of fun toppings and fresh fruit!I love the concept of smoothie bowls. They are a great way to pack in a ton of “good stuff” like grains, fruits and veggies into one meal. A smoothie bowl is thicker and you will need to eat it with a spoon rather than a straw like a normal smoothie drink.For those mornings when you're looking to up your fruit smoothie game, this healthy smoothie bowl recipe is the perfect answer. Smoothie bowls are so customizable too which makes them really fun to make. I love adding a variety of toppings like fresh fruit, granola, chia seeds, hemp hearts and whipped coconut cream (recipe below in notes) for a very special nutritious touch. There are so many different flavors and variations that you really can’t mess this up so just whip out your blender and give some a try! I always have frozen fruit on hand like bananas, pineapple and berries as they make smoothies thick and creamy. Feel free to throw in some greens as well such as spinach or kale!Blended smoothie bowls are the fancy way to serve a thick, nutrient dense meal, great for busy people on the go as it can be made in minutes or even meal prepped the night before. Then you just need to throw the prepared ingredients together and take the bowl with you if you are short on time.If you need to switch up your morning green smoothie recipe, this berry smoothie bowl is a wonderful option. It is perfect for a breakfast or lunch that is quick, healthy, and easily customizable.Smoothie bowls are an upgrade on the normal smoothie as you can add on some really healthy toppings that make them more filling then a regular smoothie. Healthy toppings like hemp or chia seeds, nuts and whole grain oats for example are a great way to add fiber to your diet, as well as other essential nutrients you might otherwise be missing out on. I love to add on fresh fruit as well for even more color and flavor.You can even add in your favorite protein powder if you are looking to add more protein to your diet. That's especially helpful for those on a fitness or muscle toning program or for those who are vegan, and might be having a harder time meeting their protein requirements.Practice makes perfect. Different fruits and veggies yield slightly different results. Don't be afraid to play around with ingredient amounts to get the right texture so you can get that oooo-weeeee baby powered up and ready to go feeling that only smoothie bowls can give you!And lately, I just can’t stop making these delicious smoothie bowls. It’s like the perfect combo.The perfect meal, really.Get YOUR day off to a delicious and nutritious start with this super Blueberry Power Smoothie Bowl.
