Lately, I have been borderline obsessed with acai bowls. As we enter into July, (I swear June lasted 10 seconds) they have been a refreshing and somewhat healthy way to start off my morning. I thought it would be fun to write a little post with some photos and include my personal recipe!

| It all started at the Three Blind Refs Tournament in Kalispell, Montana. My first bowl was from the Mountain Berry Bowls and it was heaven in the blazing heat. |

Yield: 1 smoothie bowl
Time: 5-10 minutes, depending on level of perfectionism
Ingredients:
1/4 cup frozen raspberries
1/4 cup frozen blueberries
4-5 frozen strawberries
1 packet of frozen acai (I found mine at Safeway)
1/2 cup of Trop 50 Orange Juice or your desired liquid
granola (mine is a gluten free brand called Pure Addiction)
nut butter (I used almond)
honey
fresh blueberries (optional)
1/2 of a banana (optional)
1. Combine frozen fruit and liquid in blender and blend until smooth.
2. Spoon smoothie into bowl, flatten surface with a spoon.
3. Top with desired toppings. It can be as messy or Instagram-worthy as you would like.
4. Take a picture because you made yourself a bomb breakfast that is healthy and delicious and need to document the moment.
5. Enjoy, you deserve it!
