Raspberry Smoothie Bowl
Sometimes a bowl of cold, refreshing ice cream or sorbet is what you need, but if you’re craving something like that for breakfast or want to opt for a lighter dessert, this is the recipe for you! This recipe is super flexible and you can basically blend any fruit of choice. Raspberries and other kinds of berries are great antioxidants and provide vitamins and minerals. Chia seeds help absorb liquid and keep the smoothie thicker for longer, and are also a great source of Omega-3 fatty acids, which help to raise the “good” cholesterol in our body.
- Yield: 1 bowl 1x
Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen raspberry
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder (optional)

Instructions
- In a food processor, pulse together the frozen raspberry and banana until crumbly. Add in the protein powder and blend until incorporated. If needed, add in milk one tablespoon at a time to help the mixture blend.
