What’s an Acai Bowl?
These fruity smoothie bowls have gained a lot of popularity lately! An acai bowl is made with acai berries – small, purple-blueish berries grown in South America. These berries are said to have many health benefits and are also very delicious!
To make one of these bowls, simply combine together fresh or frozen acai berries with your choice of milk (I used coconut but almond, cashew or oat milk will also work great!), additional fruit and berries. Pulse the ingredients in a blender or food processor until a smooth puree forms. Combine the fruit puree with chia seeds, granola or muesli, then pour into a bowl and garnish with fresh sliced fruit and berries. This smoothie bowl is best when enjoyed right away!
