Super Green Smoothie Bowl
Author: Minimalist Baker
Serves 2
Ingredients:
-
1/4 ripe avocado
-
2 medium ripe bananas
-
1 cup fresh or frozen mixed berries
-
2 large handfuls spinach
-
1 small handful kale
-
1 1/2 - 2 cups unsweetened non-dairy milk
-
1 Tbsp flaxseed meal
-
2 Tbsp salted creamy almond or peanut butter (optional)
Instructions:
-
Add all smoothie ingredients to a blender and blend until creamy and smooth. Add more almond milk (or water) to thin.
-
Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more ripe banana (or maple syrup) for added sweetness, more spinach for a bright green hue, or almond milk for creaminess.
-
For the green smoothie, I used strawberries, which let the green color come through more. For the purple bowl, I used darker berries (raspberries, blackberries, blueberries).
-
For more protein, add nut butter! This also offsets / enhances the natural sweetness of the smoothie.
-
Divide between 2 serving bowls and top with desired toppings!
-
Best when fresh, though leftovers can be kept in jars in the fridge for up to 1-2 days.
