Blueberry Breakfast Smoothie Bowl

I had not idea that smoothie bowls were so popular.  We had actually been consuming them for awhile as I often make smoothies too thick for drinking ;)  The only addition we have recently included is the toppings.  Oh my, the toppings are key.  While I make the smoothie I also throw some seeds and nuts into a pan and roast for a couple minutes. They add a lot of flavour, crunch and protein!  Even the little guy devours these smoothies.  Here is a popular one at our house.

Ingredients (makes 3-4 servings)

  • 1 cup coconut milk or milk of choice (or more depending on desired consistency)
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries
  • 2 frozen bananas
  • 1/2 avocado
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla or pinch vanilla powder
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1-2 cups spinach/kale

Toppings
  • roasted coconut, pumpkin seeds, cashews and chia seeds

Directions
  1. Place all items into the blender and puree until smooth.
  2. Place into bowls.
  3. Roast seeds and nuts for topping.
  4. Place roasted seeds/nuts on top of the smoothie.
  5. Enjoy!
