Tropical Acai Bowl

Notes

Toppings can be the downfall of your healthy breakfast if you don't portion them out; use sparingly based on your own dietary constraints and daily macros.

Tropical Acai Bowl Recipe

Ingredients

  1. For the base:
    1 1/2 packs unsweetened frozen acai
    1/2 frozen banana
    1/4 cup frozen mango
    1/4 cup light coconut milk
    1/4 cup pineapple juice
  1. For the toppings:
    Sliced strawberries and/or raspberries
    1/4 sliced banana
    Shredded or flaked unsweetened coconut
    Puffed quinoa or a low-sugar granola (I’m a big fan of Purely Elizabeth [1])
    Bee pollen [2] or honey (sparingly)
    Chia seeds (optional)

Directions

  1. Break the frozen acai into smaller chunks and blend with the frozen fruit, coconut milk, and pineapple juice until a thick consistency is reached. If you need to thin it out, add more juice or coconut milk (or even water or coconut water), and if you need to thicken, add more banana or mango.
  2. Slice up your fruit. Pour the blend into a bowl and layer and sprinkle your toppings according to your preference. Enjoy immediately.
