Fruit Smoothie Bowl Ingredients

I often call this a rainbow smoothie bowl since it really does include a rainbow of ingredients. Each one is a powerhouse of nutrients in its own way, but blended together it becomes the ultimate boost for your body through fiber, vitamin A and vitamin C.

• Spinach: I love adding leafy greens to smoothie bowls to boost protein, vitamin C and fiber.
• Orange: This awesome citrus acts as both fruit and liquid so no need to add extra water to this blended bowl.
• Strawberries: Frozen strawberries are picked at the peak freshness so they are super sweet and bursting with flavor.
• Blueberries: These tiny berries are antioxidant powerhouses and a mild ingredient for smoothie bowls.
• Banana: Finish this recipe off with just a touch of sweetness from a fresh banana.

Smoothie Bowl Toppings

While you could eat a smoothie bowl plain, why would you deprive yourself of the opportunity for toppings? I topped the bowl with juicy oranges, bright kiwis, gorgeous strawberries and delightful blueberries. You can also use crunchy toppings like hemp hearts, nuts and seeds, or some healthy granola.

Swirling nut butter over the top adds healthy fat that tastes yummy as well as helps your body break down the natural fruit sugars. What’s your favorite way to top a fruit smoothie bowl?

How to Make a Fruit Smoothie Bowl

You can make your own smoothie bowl creation by simply decreasing the amount of liquid in your favorite smoothie recipes. If you want to make a fresh bowl right from the start, follow these simple instructions:

1. Start by blending the spinach and orange until smooth. It might take a bit for your blender to break down the spinach leaves until there are no leafy chunks. I like to lightly peel my oranges so they keep the white pith on them, loaded with nutrients.
2. Add the remaining ingredients and blend again until smooth. Since the frozen fruit won’t have a whole lot of liquid to help them break down, use the tamper (if you’re using a high powered blender) or stop your blender and scrape down the sides as many times as needed for a smooth blend.
3. Once your smoothie bowl reaches the consistency of soft serve ice cream, scoop into a bowl and top away!
