Ingredients

• For the Smoothie Base:

• 1 cup frozen berries

• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt

• 1/4 cup almond milk (or milk of your choice)

• 1/2 cup baby spinach leaves

• For the Toppings:

• Sliced strawberries

• Blueberries

• Blackberries

• 1/4 cup granola

• 1 Tbsp. sunflower seeds

Directions

• Blend the Base: Place the first 4 ingredients (the frozen berries, Greek yogurt, almond milk, and baby spinach leaves) into your blender.
• Process: Blend the mixture on medium/high speed until it reaches the thick, smooth consistency you desire.
• Assemble and Garnish: Pour the blended smoothie base into a bowl. Top it beautifully with the sliced strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, granola, and sunflower seeds. Enjoy immediately!

Notes

• Consistency is Key: The secret to a perfect smoothie bowl is keeping the base thick enough to support the toppings so they do not sink to the bottom. Using frozen berries rather than fresh ones is crucial for achieving that thick, ice-cream-like texture. If your blender is struggling, add just a tiny splash more milk, but do so sparingly.
• Customizing the Greens: Baby spinach is highly recommended because it has a very mild, almost undetectable flavor when blended with dark, sweet berries. It is an incredibly easy way to sneak leafy greens into your diet!
• Topping Variations: The listed toppings are fantastic, but you can easily customize the bowl to fit your pantry. Try adding a drizzle of honey, shredded coconut, chia seeds, sliced almonds, or even a spoonful of peanut butter for extra healthy fats and protein.
