Smoothie bowls are so beautiful, don’t you think? When pictures of these delectable bowls of healthy goodness started appearing all over the internet, it wasn’t long before I felt like I had to make one. I love making pretty food, and this is such a simple way to make a beautiful treat.
As noted in the recipe, this recipe is best made with frozen fruit so that it’s nice and ice-creamy thick, which is my preference to eat with a spoon. Isn’t it beautiful??
Before I give you the recipe, however, let me ask you a serious question: Have you made yourself a smoothie bowl before? And what do you prefer: a thick smoothie in a bowl with a spoon, or a slightly thinner one in a glass with a straw?
I’m genuinely curious about your answer. I’ll be honest, I’ve pretty much only made these for the joy of the prettiness… but most of the time, I confess, I am more inclined to just pour the mixture into a glass than into a bowl with trimmings. So tell me: What are you more inclined to prepare for yourself? A smoothie in a glass, or in a bowl like this?
Regardless, if you’re a smoothie bowl person or a “pretty bowl” person (like me), here’s how to make one… Including the link to just the plain smoothie recipe, in case you’d prefer to have it in a glass. 😉
