I love smoothies and have been drinking them daily for years. They are a terrific way to pack a ton of nutrients into one delicious drink. Smoothie BOWLS however are awesome because with just a few additional ingredients like avocado, nut butters and oats, you can make your smoothie into a nutritionally dense, complete meal! I love to eat them for breakfast because there is a real sense of accomplishment that comes with getting your daily servings of fruits and vegetables noon. When I start my day off right, I have found that it sets me up to make healthy choices for the rest of the day.
I made this Super Smoothie Bowl recently and it was freakin' delicious and left me full well into lunch which is an accomplishment in of itself.
