The Perfect Formula for Smoothie Breakfast Bowls

At home, yogurt, granola and fruit is a pretty pedestrian breakfast. But if you’ve ever had an acai bowl for breakfast, you know that “ho-hum” breakfast is next level when it’s topped with fresh fruit and crunchy nuts and seeds. There’s just something delicious and decadent about a smoothie bowl for breakfast.

You can recreate the magic of this tropical treat at home (it’s shockingly easy!). It’s a pretty straightforward formula that can be flexible and leads to a refreshing, healthy and flavorful breakfast.

The Main Components

一个很棒的冰沙早餐碗有以下重要组成部分:

Protein

Think of this as an important supporting actor. Include protein from yogurt, milk, chia or your favorite nut milk. Choose unsweetened varieties to prevent added sugars from sneaking into your bowl.

水果

The star of your smoothie bowl is flavorful fruit. Strawberries! Raspberries! Blueberries! Cherries! All of these juicy summer fruits are bursting with antioxidants and healthy fiber. Freezing them is a great way to preserve the best of the season.

The Boosts

The boosts that make the bowl special are:

Crunch

The best part about eating a smoothie is the texture that comes from dressing up a bowl. Add toasted nuts to boost protein and fiber and your favorite granola for more crunch.

Super-nutritious Extras

Bee pollen, hemp seed, cacao nibs and sesame seeds are healthy ingredients that add crunch and nutrition. They also make it colorful and beautiful!
