Summer Breakfast Smoothie Bowl Recipe
By: Barb Biagioli
If you’re getting bored with your regular smoothie, a great way to add variety to your mornings or post-workout snacks is with a smoothie bowl. The best part about the smoothie bowl is the endless combination of toppings that make it so variable, delicious and super healthy.
Smoothie bowls can be packed full of plant super-foods. They are a great opportunity to increase you intake of plant foods that are high in antioxidants – to help scavenge free radicals from the body and ward off oxidative stress. The inclusion of greens in your smoothie bowl is a sneaky way to slip in an extra boost of fiber and vitamins. The fiber in both the greens and the fruit will stabilize any concerns of a blood sugar spike, while also helping to promote digestion and elimination. If you are looking to add more protein to your smoothie bowl, try a scoop of peanut butter on top or sprinkle it with a few tablespoons of hemp seeds.

Total Time: 5 minutes | Servings: 2 - 3
INGREDIENTS
1 cup almond milk
1 cup spinach
1 cup frozen cherries
1 cup frozen blueberries
1 frozen banana
½ cup pineapple
Toppings
coconut flakes
hemp seeds
nuts
berries
banana
cacao nibs
bee pollen
goji berries
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Combine all ingredients into the blender. Using the wand, help to emulsify the ingredient in the blender, adding any additional liquid needed to help the ingredients blend together.
2. Pour the blend into a bowl and top with berries, coconut flakes, and cacao nibs. Or whatever your heart desires!
Note: You want the smoothie to be thick. Adding too much almond milk or water will result in a thinner smoothie that is harder to eat from the bowl with a spoon.
