Let's start with breakfast. I've already shared my favorite chia pudding recipe but another breakfast staple of mine is a good green smoothie. On the weekends, I like to take it up a notch and have a yummy smoothie bowl. By using frozen bananas instead of fresh, you get a thicker smoothie that's less of a sippin' smoothie, and more of a spooning kind of smoothie. I stick with my favorite green smoothie and then top it off with some added goodness to feel a bit more fancy. My go to-s as of late have been to top it off with chia seeds, gogi berries and blueberries as pictured as well as shredded coconut or homemade coconut chips, hemp hearts or sliced fruit. Really, the sky's the limit here, whatever goodness you want to add, will only further benefit the already healthy smoothie you use as the "base" of your bowl.

Smoothie Bowl: 1 frozen banana // 2 heaping handfuls of fresh spinach // 1/3 cup frozen mango and pineapple // 1/2 cup almond milk (I like this one because it's carageenan free- read more about that here) - Blend these ingredients together (add extra water or almond milk if needed), then scoop into your bowl and top it off with your choice of add ons! (Serves 1)
