Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen watermelon
- 1 cup frozen bananas
- 3.5 oz frozen coconut smoothie pack (or frozen coconut milk) (optional)
Toppings (Optional)
- Granola
- Chopped fresh fruits
- Chia seeds
- Cacao nibs
- Shredded coconut
- Nuts or seeds
- Nut or seed butter drizzle
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the frozen ingredients including watermelon, bananas, and the optional frozen coconut smoothie pack or frozen coconut milk. You can let the ingredients thaw in the blender for 5-7 minutes to ease blending.
- Blend Smoothie Base: Place the frozen bananas, watermelon, and coconut into your blender. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and thick. If using a Vitamix, use the tamper to keep ingredients down, and stop blending occasionally to scrape down the sides. Avoid adding too much extra liquid; if needed, add up to 1/4 cup of plant-based milk to assist blending without diluting the texture.
- Serve and Garnish: Pour or scoop the thick smoothie into your serving bowl. Top with your choice of granola, chopped fresh fruits, chia seeds, cacao nibs, shredded coconut, nuts or seeds, or drizzle with nut or seed butter. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- The frozen coconut smoothie pack or frozen coconut milk is optional but adds richness and creaminess to the bowl.
- Use a high-powered blender like a Vitamix for the smoothest texture.
- Do not add too much liquid to maintain the super thick consistency ideal for eating with a spoon.
- Toppings are highly customizable based on your preference and what you have available.
- Consumes best immediately for freshness and optimal texture.
