Lately, I’ve been experimenting with different acai bowls and I think I nailed another great recipe. It’s a smoothly texturized, very chocolatey flavored smoothie and it can look amazing with different toppings.
I will call it…
The Chocolatey Acai Bowl (boom!!)
Ingredients:
- 1 packet of frozen acai
- 1/2 ripe avocado
- cup of coconut milk – I used Alpro for this one – coconut is better because it already has a natural smoothness and sweetness
- 1 tbsp cacao powder
- 1/2 scoop of protein powder – if chocolate-flavoured, even better 😛
If you like it sweeter…
- 1/2 tbsp maca powder – I used Lucy Bee
- 1 tsp of cinnamon – good for GI levels
- 1 tbsp (powdered) peanut butter (optional)
Toppings:
- quinoa puffs
- goji berries
- coconut flakes
- chocolate – I used Buck-n-berry from lovingearth
Instructions: Defrost slightly the acai packet under warm water, just enough to be able to cut the plastic off (if any). Blend everything together and pour into a bowl. Finally, add the toppings. And voila! Your very chocolatey, very smooth, very vegan, paleo and GI-friendly breakfast!
Let me know if you “dig it” 😀
