Classic Acai Smoothie Bowl

This is my go-to recipe for smoothie bowls. If you want to make it an on-the-go smoothie, just add more liquid and pour into a cup. Makes approx. 2 servings.

Ingredients:

• 1.5 cups coconut milk unsweetened (you can use whatever milk you prefer, but I highly recommend using milk or an alternative milk to get that creamy flavor and texture)

• 1 block frozen acai (you can find in almost all grocery stores now, but my favorite is from Trader Joe's)

• 1 cup frozen strawberries

• 1 frozen banana (I just buy bananas and then peel and freeze them once they are ripe)

• 1 T. agave syrup (honey works too)

• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder

• 1 T. all natural peanut butter--optional

• Toppings: granola, nuts, seeds, nut butters, shredded coconut, berries, etc.

Instructions:

• Add all ingredients to a blender or a bowl if using an immersion blender like I do (an immersion blender is a handheld stick blender and is a lot easier to clean)

• Blend until smooth and creamy texture is achieved

• Pour into a bowl

• Add desired toppings

• Enjoy
