Introducing… smoothie bowls, the smoothie’s thickened alternative!
These delicious concoctions have quickly become everybody’s favorite breakfast-snack-dessert-treat.
And, even though I would never suggest you replace a hot breakfast with a bowl of cold smoothie… smoothie bowls do hit the spot at 3 p.m. when dinner seems too far away.

Check Out This Smoothie Bowl’s Star Ingredients…
- Avocados make this smoothie bowl creamy and rich to keep you fuller longer. Not only that, but avocadoes are a great source of fiber!
- Full fat yogurt is loaded with protein and live probiotics. I like to use yogurt instead of kefir in my smoothie bowl to create a thicker consistency.
- Beets are high in immune-boosting Vitamin C, fiber, and essential minerals. Plus, that beautiful deep pink color! If you struggle to enjoy this humble root vegetable, know that the berries and vanilla extract do a great job of balancing the robust, earthy flavor typical to beets.
- Bananas sweeten this smoothie bowl naturally (the mixed berries and beets help too), yet if you find you want a little more, feel free to drizzle some raw honey or maple syrup on top!

Hélène says
For a lower carb bowl, omit banana as its not that full of nutrients and the beet is. Add stevia glycerite to the mix. I add eggs too so its a meal, not just a side dish. And/or eat some nuts and seeds on the side. A generous spoonful of almond butter is delightful and another svg of protein.
