Smoothie Bowl
The secret to nailing this super creamy smoothie is to mix everything on low.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup low-fat milk OR low-fat yogurt
- 1 cup frozen fruit
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 cup fresh kale OR spinach (optional)
- 1 cup ice
Optional Toppings:
- Sliced fresh fruit, nuts, granola, shredded unsweetened coconut, etc.
Suggested Flavor Ideas:
- Tropical: Try using orange juice instead of milk or yogurt. Use fruits such as mango, pineapple, or peaches.
- Peanut butter chocolate: In place of frozen fruit, use an additional frozen banana, for a total of 2 bananas. Also, add 1 tablespoon cocoa powder and 2 tablespoons peanut butter.
- Mixed berry: Try using different frozen berries, or even a frozen berry mix. We suggest blueberries, raspberries, and/or strawberries.
