Memorial Day – Acai Breakfast Bowls! (PLANT-BASED)
Ingredients
- 2 3.5 oz packet Acai Berry Puree, Unsweetened & frozen. Find in frozen section of grocery store.
- 1 medium banana, cut in half. (Half in blender, half sliced for topping)
- ½ cup plain Coconut-Milk Yogurt, unsweetened
- Handful baby spinach leaves
- ½ cup Scant frozen cherries (or any berry you like)
- 1 cup Scant frozen blueberries
- 1½ scoops vanilla protein powder, no added-sugar
- ½ cup Scant unsweetened vanilla almond milk or Lite coconut milk
Toppings
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
- 10-12 fresh blackberries (or strawberries if preferred)
- ½ ½ banana, sliced
- 3 tbsp shredded coconut, unsweetened
- 2 tbsp pistachios, roughly chopped
Instructions
- Make the “Smoothie” portion as thick or loose as you like. Typical Acai-Bowls have an almost sorbet-like consistency, best achieved with a Vita-Mix (harder in a blender) and using less liquid. Personally, I like it a little looser but it’s YOUR bowl! Start with the 1/2 cup of the almond milk, adding more if you want a looser consistency.
- Puree all ingredients except toppings, and divide equally between 2 shallow bowls. Divide toppings equally, and place them in pretty vertical rows on top. Enjoy your healthy breakfast or as a dessert in lieu of ice cream or sugary desserts!
