Berry Smoothie Bowl
Servings: 1
This antioxidant-rich smoothie bowl is great for those trying to cut back on natural sugars for health or dietary needs. All fruits are lower on the GI index, yet packed with tons of delicious flavors. The squeeze of lemon really brightens the flavors and aids in digestion.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup spinach fresh
- ½ cup water
- ½ cup peaches frozen
- ½ cup blueberries frozen
- ½ cup strawberries frozen
- 1 tbsp lemon juiced
For toppings:
- blueberries frozen
- sliced almonds
- pepitas
Instructions
- Blend spinach and water until there are no leafy chunks remaining.
- Add remaining ingredients and blend again. If blades get stuck, use the tamper to push ingredients down until the blades start moving on their own again. Blend until smooth.
- Pour into a bowl and top with toppings.
Notes
- Swap spinach with the leafy greens of your choice.
- To lower the natural sugar in this recipe swap 1/2 cup of peaches with 1/2 avocado (will be less sweet tasting overall).
- Add 1 serving of homemade protein powder to boost this recipe by 10 grams of protein.
- If it's easier, you can use mixed berries instead of 3 individual fruits, just make sure to scoop out 1 1/2 cups.
