1 serving Vega One Chocolate
1/4 cup almond milk

1 tsp cacao nibs
1 tsp shredded coconut
1-2 tsp hemp hearts
Sprinkle of cacao powder
Fresh, sliced strawberries and/or banana slices

Add more liquid if required. You want this extra thick so if you do add the more liquid so it slowly and sparingly
Add smoothie ingredients to a chilled bowl
Top with as many optional toppings as you like.
Acai Bowls
My love affair with acai bowls started earlier this year when I happened upon a Pinterest post. My love continued to grow with a trip to Maui in April where I was met with the greatest acai bowl of my life. If you are on Maui please go to Choice Health Bar so you can experience it for yourself. Good news – if you aren’t going to Maui anytime soon you can still fall in love with an acai bowl at home.
Here’s how:
Ingredients
1-2 frozen acai packs (you can use juice or powder but I prefer the frozen packs for convenience)
1/2 cup frozen berries
1/4 cup almond milk
Optional: spinach, Chlorella or you other fave greens
Topping
1/4 cup granola (crunchier the better) 2 tbsp hemp hearts
1 tsp shredded coconut
1 tbsp cocoa nibs
Sliced fresh fruit (strawberries, banana, etc)
1 tbsp honey
Directions
Blend all ingredients (except topping) in a high powered blender on low/med scape sides as required Add more liquid as required (use sparingly – you want this thick) Blend until thick & smooth Serve in chilled bowl Top with any of the toppings above (I usually use them all) Enjoy (and share – this will make 1 large or 2 small bowls)
