My Green Acai Bowl
If you follow me on Instagram or have been reading the blog for awhile, first of all thank you (and if not, welcome)!! Second of all, you've probably noticed that I'm a pretty big fan of smoothies and acai bowls. So you could imagine my excitement when I found out a few months ago that a storefront was finally going to be opening in my area... The funny thing is, I love making my own bowls so much that it's taken me a few months to make it down to Avila but last week I finally got to check this new Kravabowl ("crave - a - bowl") joint out.
Although I prefer my own creations to the bowls I've found around town, the Greens Please bowl that I got was probably the best bowl I've ordered to date. It tasted much fresher than many of the coffee shop versions I've tried and they know how to do toppings right! I'm talking granola on top AND on the bottom of my bowl (which is perfect because I'm always finding that I've run out by the time I'm at the bottom...)
So for all my SLOcals out there, this is a #ShareSLO spot that I highly recommend trying out! And if you don't live on the central coast, give the Green Bowl a shot and make your own with my version of the recipe below:
Base Ingredients:
- Orange juice (1 cup)
- Acai puree pack
- Banana
- Broccoli (handful)
- Kale (3 stalks)
- Ginger (1/2 inch)
- Lime juice
- Strawberries
- Frozen grapes
Toppings:
- Granola
- Coconut
- Chia seeds
- Fresh fruit - banana & strawberry
Let me know how it goes! I'd love to hear your variations or favorite green smoothie recipes :)
