If you have cut frozen fruits preparing a smoothie bowl is a breeze.The preparation process of smoothie bowl is very simple and one can create smoothie bowl according to their personal choice. The options for the base smoothies are endless - mixed berries, avocados, bananas, mangoes or combination of fruits. The toppings are left to each individual's choice - use the fruits of your choice along with the base fruit used in the smoothie, berries, various nuts like almonds, cashews, walnuts, pecans, pistachios and dried cranberries(or raisins). Apart from fruits,berries and nuts , the addition of various seeds - pumpkin, sunflower,melon seeds,chia seeds and coconut flakes adds a nice bite to the smoothie bowl. I usually serve mine with either granola or weetabix but one can even avoid it if you don't have it or can be eaten with cornflakes.
Smoothie bowls are quite heavy and keeps you full until mid morning.One can even blend oats with the frozen fruits with yogurt and add toppings of your choice.You can create your own smoothie bowl and enjoy those delicious looking smoothie bowls for your breakfast with out much effort.
