Ever feel like that smoothie, that you spent part of your morning making,did not fill you enough?
Sometimes that feeling leads you to reaching for that mid-morning snack sooner than you would on other days.
Instead of ditching that smoothie, kick it up a notch – make it a bowl!
This may not be a new trend, but it’s definitely one that needs to be revisited – especially during the warm summer weather!
Start off by making the smoothie a little thicker, by using an avocado or a yogurt (I use Kite Hill almond-based yogurt). This will make it easier to add toppings and enjoy your smoothie bowl by the spoonful . There are so many ways to create this bowl but my favorite way is to save most of the fruit/ sweetness for the top of the bowl, so my base is mostly made up of veggies and proteins.
These smoothie bowls are especially great for a post-Fixx refueling since they are loaded with protein and natural anti inflammatory ingredients! It is such a simple and delicious way to pack in tons of nutrients and protein, while also leaving you feeling very healthy and satisfied!
