Energy Boosting Green Goji Smoothie Bowl

IMG_2415 (1).jpg

One of my favorite things when the weather warms up is to make smoothie bowls for most meals! I’m a huge fan of the thick and creamy version when I just want to enjoy eating rather than drinking my nutrients!

However, the smoothie serves it purpose for me definitely on-the-go! I’ve made so many combos over the years I wanted to start sharing them on here as well with my other recipes. Its so easy to create combos if you have a base set of ingredients in you kitchen. Some of my base ingredients are as follows:

  • Frozen fruit of all kinds including bananas peeled and halved or even quartered, strawberries, blueberries, cherries, peaches, and etc.

  • Unsweetened coconut flakes

  • Chia Seeds

  • Hemp Seeds

  • Nut butters of all kinds ranging from peanut, cashew, almond and sunflower

  • unsweetened cacao nibs and powder (this is the highest grade of cocoa beans and has the highest amount of antioxidants.)

  • Non Dairy milks ranging from flax milk, oat milk, almond milk, cashew milk, hemp milk, and etc.

  • Plant protein powders of all kinds. I usually like vanilla and I’ll add in cacao if I want it chocolaty. (Look for my favorite proteins in an upcoming post)

  • Green powders like spirulina, Moringa powder and blended fruit and veggie powders

  • High performance powders like Maca

  • Superfoods including all of the above then I also have things like Goji berries, baobab powder and any new superfoods I may see and want to try.

  • Fresh leafy greens like spinach, kale, collard greens and etc.

Not that you need ALL of these! Its just a good idea to have a couple in your back pocket to really jazz up a smoothie. However, if you just have the basics, like nut milk, protein, some frozen fruit, fresh veggies and a superfood or two that’s it!

For this smoothie I definitely added more pizazze than normal because I wanted to enjoy and savor a creamy bowl BUT I’m including directions for both a smoothie drink and bowl!
