Açaí Addiction

Saturday, July 2, 2016

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. 
Here is a side view of the same bowl featuring my one nub thumb and reflection in the background. 
This was my second homemade bowl with another shoutout to my little cacti garden. Talk about aesthetically pleasing.

Cienna's Famous Acai Bowl

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!
