Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- ¼ cup milk
- ¾ cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 1 frozen banana (peeled)
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 1 cup frozen riced cauliflower
Optional Sweetener
- Splash of honey or maple syrup (to sweeten, if desired)
Toppings
- Fresh strawberries
- Fresh banana slices
- Granola or hemp hearts
Instructions
- Add Ingredients to Blender: To a blender, add the milk, Greek yogurt, frozen banana, frozen strawberries, and frozen riced cauliflower. Starting with low speed helps begin breaking down the frozen fruits gently.
- Blend Until Smooth: Gradually increase the blender speed to high to fully combine all ingredients. Use a tamper or spatula to scrape down the sides as needed for an even blend. If the mixture is too thick to blend, add milk one tablespoon at a time carefully to avoid thinning out the smoothie bowl too much. Once smooth, avoid over blending to maintain a thick texture.
- Serve and Add Toppings: Pour or spoon the smoothie mixture into a bowl. Immediately top with your choice of fresh strawberries, banana slices, granola, or hemp hearts for texture and added flavor. Enjoy right away for the best taste and consistency.
Notes
- Use frozen fruits to achieve a thick, creamy consistency without diluting the flavors.
- Riced cauliflower adds fiber and nutrients without altering the taste significantly.
- You can substitute milk with any plant-based milk for a dairy-free variation.
- Adjust sweetness by adding honey or maple syrup, or omit for a naturally sweetened bowl.
- Serve immediately as smoothie bowls tend to lose their texture if left standing.
