Banana Blueberry Smoothie bowl

this RECIPE

So, I have to admit...when I first heard of smoothie bowls, I was a big skeptic.

I had a very hard time understanding why on EARTH would someone pour a smoothie into a bowl and then eat it with a spoon. Like I mean I understand the appeal of eating out of a bowl for my oat recipes like my Blueberry Crisp Overnight Oats, but a smoothie? I get how a smoothie is delicious like my Blueberry Muffin Protein Smoothie, but in a bowl?

It just seemed so dang weird.

I mean...a spoon??

Then, I finally tried one for myself.

And another one.

And, well, another one.

Then, I made a strawberry peach smoothie bowl <--- yum

And I kinda fell in love with smoothie bowls.

Now that I've got a good year or so of smoothie bowl "research" under my belt, let's discuss why we should ALL be on the spoon-eating smoothie bowl train.

• SUPER easy to make
• Can add all sorts of fun toppings to customize
• So pretty!
• Add texture to your smoothie
• Smoothies and shakes never get boring - woot!
• The perfect use for those chia seeds and pepitas sitting in your pantry
• Colorful
• Clean eating goodness

Seriously: Smoothie bowls are pretty darn awesome and I'm so glad I finally went for it and tried my smoothie with a spoon!

If you haven't tried them for yourself, I totally think you should.  🙂

Try this banana blueberry smoothie bowl for starters or my strawberry and peach smoothie bowl or any of my protein shakes and add whatever flavors and toppings you like to the top.
