Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup frozen fruit (such as pineapple, mango, berries, or cherries)
  • 1 banana (previously peeled and frozen)
  • 2 cups baby spinach (60 g)
  • ¼ cup liquid (such as orange juice, milk, or water)

Optional Thickener

  • 1 Tbsp chia seeds or 2 Tbsp rolled oats

Optional Nutrition Boosters

  • 1 tsp flax seed, moringa powder, protein powder, spirulina, or turmeric (choose one or mix)

Toppings

  • Sliced fruit
  • Shaved coconut
  • Nuts or seeds

Instructions

  1. Freeze the Fruit: Select your preferred fruits such as pineapple, mango, berries, or cherries, then cut them into chunks if needed and freeze them. Peel, chop, and freeze the banana as well to ensure a creamy, cold base for your smoothie bowl.
  2. Blend the Ingredients: In a blender, combine the frozen fruit chunks, frozen banana, baby spinach, and your choice of liquid (orange juice, milk, or water). Add any optional thickeners like chia seeds or rolled oats, and nutrition boosters such as flax seed or protein powder for extra health benefits. Blend thoroughly until smooth, using a spatula to push down the sides if necessary, and add more liquid in small amounts if the mixture is too thick to blend evenly.
  3. Serve and Decorate: Pour the blended smoothie evenly into two bowls. Garnish with your favorite toppings such as sliced fresh fruit, shaved coconut, nuts, or seeds for added texture and flavor. Enjoy immediately for the best taste and freshness.

Notes

  • Use frozen fruits to achieve a thick, creamy texture without needing ice.
  • Adjust liquid amount based on desired thickness; less liquid results in a thicker bowl.
  • Experiment with different toppings and nutrition boosters to suit your dietary needs and taste preferences.
  • Consume immediately after blending for best flavor and texture.
  • Frozen banana helps sweeten the bowl naturally, reducing the need for added sugars.
