Easy Berry Smoothie Bowl Recipe

I’ve seen on Instagram those acai bowls that everyone seems to devour in California. Over here in the dirty South, we don’t have much of a health craze happening. I can find some great BBQ or fried chicken, but smoothie bowls? Nah.

We’ve got a few great juice places, but that’s about it. Instead of searching for this bowl of goodness, I decided to whip up my own. I already make a smoothie every so often when I’m in a rush, or feel like drinking dinner, so I knew I could handle the challenge. 

Easy Berry Smoothie Bowl Recipe

These smoothie bowls are easy to make and you can easily work in your favorite flavors. My standard smoothie recipe is below and it’s exactly what I used for the smoothie bowl. You can add some yogurt or increase the ratio of frozen fruit to almond milk to make it a little thicker, but that’s just a preference.  

I topped mine with sliced strawberries and bananas, shredded coconut and my favorite granola. A drizzle of honey and you’re ready to eat!

Ingredients

• 1 cup of frozen berries (or use 1 acai packet)
• 3/4 cup of vanilla unsweetened almond milk
• 1/4 cup of egg whites – if you don’t like egg whites just use a whole cup of almond milk
• 1 tbsp flax seed
• handful of spinach or any other green you like
• 1 frozen banana

Method

Step One

Add all of your ingredients to a blender and blend it all up until smooth.

Step Two

Add your toppings. You can choose whatever you like, from fresh bananas, strawberries, coconut, honey, you name it, you can add it!

If you’re looking to create a true acai bowl, swap out the berries for an acai packet. They’re frozen packets of acai puree and all you do is run it under water for 10-15 seconds, then pop it into the blender. Add the rest of the ingredients and that’s it!
