Berry Smoothie Bowl with Toasted Coconut



Smoothie bowls are all the rage right now, and why not? They’re a delicious, aesthetically-pleasing way to eat your smoothie rather than drink it! Plus, you won’t have to blend up all the fruit and instead enjoy each one separately. This beautiful recipe calls for lots of fruit, some yogurt, almond milk, chia seeds and coconut for a tasty breakfast you’ll make again and again. One serving contains 12 grams of fiber, 16 grams of protein and only 280 calories!

Pro tip: This recipe makes two servings. If you’re saving the second portion for the next morning, re-blend the smoothie mixture with one cup of ice to thicken it again.

Cook time: None minutes
Yield: 2 servings
Serving size: 8-ounces + 1 tablespoon coconut + 3 slices banana + 1 sliced strawberry + 2 tablespoons blueberries + 1 teaspoon Chia seeds
Ingredients
  • 1 cup plain, nonfat yogurt
  • ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • ½ banana, frozen

  • ⅓ cup frozen raspberries

Instructions
  1. Place the coconut in the center of a microwave safe plate, and microwave in 30 second intervals, turning the coconut over until browned and toasted.
