Smoothie Bowls Are the New Breakfast Trend Your Mornings Need
We love starting off our day with a healthy smoothie, so we’re following acai’s lead and putting ours in a bowl. Not only will this smoothie bowl satisfy your chocolate needs, but this recipe also has chia and hemp seeds that are a great source of omega 3s and protein. We’re adding blueberries and cocoa for antioxidants to keep you looking and feeling young + spinach for some extra vitamins and minerals. This breakfast is packed with goodness! Did we mention this is vegan and gluten-, dairy-, soy- and refined sugar-free?! Get ready to fuel your body AND satisfy those taste buds!

In a blender, combine your almond milk, banana, spinach and chia seeds and blend until smooth. Then pour into a bowl and add all the toppings. You can swap out or add any others you like. Some of our favorites are banana slices, cherries, walnuts, goji berries, raw pepitas and ground flax seeds.
Couldn’t you start every morning with this breakfast?
For another variation, try adding a tablespoon of almond butter or half a small avocado for some healthy fats and protein. The avocado will make your smoothie a bit creamier too.
