Strawberry Delight Smoothie Bowl

My Strawberry Delight Smoothie Bowl is going to make you really happy! I have eaten this for breakfast for days and I am not tired of it yet! It’s so refreshing and delicious, your kids will love this. AND there is a surprise ingredient, so read on!

The secret ingredient!

Ok, here it is…. My secret ingredient to this smoothie bowl is, BEET POWDER! Yes, beet powder! It has no taste, your kids get a veggie and it adds a really bright pink color to your bowls!

So why use beet powder?

I love this brand of beet powder. It’s Non-Gmo, organic, and lab-tested.

You will need a high-powered blender such as a Vitamix to make your smoothie bowls. Place two bananas in the blender, and let them defrost for about 5 minutes. Add the rest of your ingredients. Using your blender’s plunger start to push down the fruits helping them blend. This will take 1-2 minutes to get the right consistency you want for a smoothie bowl. I usually stop it twice to mix things up and then start the blender again.

Some great topping ideas are:

Coconut

Chia seeds

Crushed nuts

Peanut butter

Granola– I love this brand so much!

Honey- local honey is best

Maple syrup

Fresh fruit

Chocolate chips

Cocoa nibs

the list is endless!

Let your kids do their own toppings because kids tend to eat more of what they helped prepare!

Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 2 frozen bananas

  • 4 frozen strawberries

  • 1/4 cup frozen raspberries

  • 1 TBSP peanut butter

  • 1 heaping teaspoon of beet powder

  • toppings of your choice

Directions

  • Add the bananas to a high-powdered blender and let them defrost for about 5 minutes.
  • Add the remaining ingredients, except for the toppings, to the blender.
  • Start the blender slowly and ramp up until you are on high. I use my plunger to help mash things down and blend better. This will take 1-2 minutes and you will need to stop once or twice to mix things up.
  • When you are happy with the consistency add to your bowl and top with your favorite toppings.
