Blueberry Banana Smoothie Bowl

Smoothie bowls are a great way to mix up your breakfast routine.

They have all the deliciousness and nutrient density of a smoothie plus you get to add toppings. Creating a toppings bar for your family totally ups the breakfast fun.

Giving your kiddos choices during meal time creates more buy in and willingness to try something new too. I mean, who doesn’t love making breakfast exactly how they like it?!

We love to add fruit, nuts, chia seeds and granola to ours, but feel free to mix it up with your own favorites.

You can make any of our smoothies into smoothie bowls by adding just a little less milk.

Using frozen bananas creates a creamy thick consistency and is recommended. If you don’t have a frozen banana on hand, don’t sweat it, just add ice until you reach your desired consistency.

Happy smoothie bowl making, we’d love to hear what your favorite toppings are!
