Even though we’ve got a little June gloom happening in SoCal right now, summer is right around the corner. Next week it’s projected to be 80-degrees (all week long!), so I thought it was perfect time revisit some of my favorite smoothie bowl recipes. Smoothie bowls make for a fast, easy and healthy breakfast. You just put a few ingredients together in a blender and voila, you’re 90% done. The last 10% (and let’s be honest, the fun part) of smoothie bowl creation is adding the toppings. That’s how a smoothie bowl differs from a smoothie. Delicious, crunchy toppings that you can bite into, which make a smoothie bowl feel less like a drink and more like a meal. Listed below are 5 of my favorite smoothie bowl recipes. These are the smoothie bowls I tend to have on repeat, as they never get old. They’re all gluten-free and you can add in superfood boosters, which I mention in my healthiest green smoothie post (like my favorite collagen powder). So let’s dive in!
5 Easy and Healthy Smoothie Bowl Recipes
1. Acai Bowl
The acai bowl is the quintessential Cali summertime smoothie bowl. It’s full of antioxidants and pairs well with any berries you have on hand.
2. Mango Smoothie Bowl
When it comes to smoothie bowl popularity, this mango smoothie bowl always ranks #1 on Downshiftology. The tropical vibes and homemade gluten-free granola are a winning combo.
3. Clean Green Smoothie Bowl
If you’re looking for less fruit and more greens, this is the smoothie bowl for you. Packed with spinach and avocado, the clean green smoothie bowl will start your morning off right.
4. Dark Cherry Smoothie Bowl
The dark cherry smoothie bowl makes it 100% okay to eat chocolate for breakfast. How? With the addition of raw cacao nibs for a sweet, tasty crunch.
5. Pitaya Smoothie Bowl
It would not be a stretch to say I had my fair share of pitaya bowls while living in Bali. Pitaya (aka – dragon fruit) makes for a vibrant, refreshing and absolutely delicious smoothie bowl.
