A versatile smoothie bowl for any nurition needs!

This raspberry smoothie bowl is packed with tangy and sweet flavors and plenty of nutrition. A smoothie bowl like this is perfect as a quick breakfast, lunch, or snack and is versatile  to ingredient preferences and nutrition needs. If looking for more protein in a smoothie, you can add a plant-based protien powder to this recipe for a protein boost. If you’re looking to get more vegetables in to yours or your family’s eating pattern, adding cauliflower or zucchini to this smoothie is an easy way to incorporate some veggies with little impact to the flavor. For a “superfood” boost, consider adding freshly ground flaxseeds, chia seeds, or even a bit of wheatgrass.

A delicious and easy anti-inflammatory smoothie bowl!

Nothing says anti-inflammatory like colorful food! In the world of nutrition we often say the more natural color the better as it usually points to the antioxidant content of a food. This tropical smoothie bowl nails the color requirements when looking for an antioxidant packed recipe.

For breakfast, lunch, or even a snack, this plant-based meal option is refreshing, hydrating, loaded with plant-based goodness!

What should I be including in my smoothies?

When making smoothies or smoothie bowls, I like to prioritize a balance of macronutrients. This means making sure each smoothie contains some source of complex carbohydrates, protein, and healthy fats to help keep me full and energized for where the day make take me. It’s also a great rule of thumb to always aim to include at least one vegetable in your smoothies for an extra boost of nutrition! Then of course – because I’m me – I also then usually toss in some “superfood” ingredients whether it be chia seeds, a mushroom powder like reishi powder, maca root powder or a greens powder. **To have a nourishing and delicious smoothie you do not need to add these types of “superfood” ingredients. You can keep it simple if that feels right for you, I just can’t help but go over the top!

The aim of a smoothie is to provide a nurient-packed meal in a delicious way!
