Mouth-Watering Vegan "Bounty Bar" Smoothie Bowl

Mouth-Watering Vegan "Bounty Bar" Smoothie Bowl

If you frequently visit health cafes, you surely would have seen a smoothie bowl pop up on the menu. 

 

These quirky health bowls have become very popular over the last few years. 

 

The original Acai bowl originated in Brazil, popularized by Brazilian Jujitsu founder, Carlos Gracie.

 

Originally it was made from frozen acai blended with banana to make an icy pulp-like, frozen-yogurt consistency. 

 

The bowl evolved, and various variations emerged, loaded with toppings like sliced fruit, berries, granola, coconut, and almond butter.

 

Essentially it is like a smoothie, except it is served in a bowl with all kinds of yummy toppings.

 

It is a super yummy, healthy meal but tastes like a dessert! Who wouldn't like that?! 

 

Whether you choose to eat it for breakfast, lunch, or a healthy snack, a smoothie bowl is a great way to increase your daily fruit and nutrient intake!

 

 

Homemade smoothie bowls are healthy as you are in charge of what you use, and you don't make them with added sugar, ice cream, processed purees, and other preservatives.
