If you are looking for something a little out of the ordinary I invite you to try a Smoothie Bowl.
I know, I’m not really a smoothie drinker but sometimes smoothies are an easy dessert or meal on the go. A smoothie bowl is even more fun! You family will be delighted at this gluten-free vegan treat that is made from fruit and a little bit of plant-based milk.
This bowl reminds me of when I was a kid. We’d regularly have ice cream as a dessert. I would usually add milk to mine and make it more of a milk shake consistency but still eat in from a bowl.
This Smoothie Bowl is very sweet, thanks to the strawberry and banana but the extra added fruit help me feel like I’m having something with a little more substance.
How to Make a Smoothie Bowl
Ingredients
- 4 ounces plant-based milk
- 1 banana
- 6 frozen strawberries
Toppings
- 1 banana
- 6 fresh strawberries
- ½ cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 tsp. hemp seeds (optional)
- 1 Tbsp. raw pepitas (optional)
Instructions
- Pour plant-based milk into a high-powered blender.
- Add the banana and frozen strawberries.
- Blend in blender until smooth and pour into bowls.
- Top with fresh sliced banana and strawberries, blueberries and seeds.
You can change up your Smoothie Bowl to cater to your cravings. Who’s to say you can’t add some Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips on top of your Smoothie Bowl.
