Are you looking to satisfy your sweet tooth but don’t want to lose the nutritional ingredients? Our easy-to-make smoothie bowls are the perfect start to the day or even a hearty mid-day snack. We’ve created two recipes that include a variety of fruits and vegetables like raspberries, cauliflower, broccoli, and more. Plus, both recipes include our Primal Kitchen Vanilla Whey Protein Powder for an extra boost of protein.
Since these smoothie bowls also call for frozen fruits and vegetables, prep time is minimal. Using frozen fruits and vegetables will also make smoothie bowls thick and spoiled. We’ve listed a bunch of coating ideas to use as a finish coat, but the sky’s the limit with overlays! Use your favorite nuts, seeds, fruit, or whatever else you want.
How to make smoothie bowls
First, you’ll want to put your components together. For the pink smoothie, you’ll start with cauliflower rice, raspberries and milk in a blender. If you’re looking to make a green smoothie, you’ll start by putting broccoli, berries, and milk in a blender.
Then you will pin nut butters, flaxseeds and Primal Kitchen whey powders. Mix on high until smooth. The mixture will thicken! Place the mixture in the freezer for 15 minutes or so while you prepare your toppings.
Finally, scoop your smoothie into the bowl of your choice and toss it on top. We recommend enjoying immediately!

Note
Use any combination of berries you like. Strawberries, blackberries, and raspberries are lower in carbs overall than blueberries.
Using frozen fruits and vegetables will help ensure your smoothie is thick and perishable. Start with ½ cup of milk and add more as needed to help blend the smoothie.
Frozen steamed zucchini is also a great low-carb option to supplement!
I used full-fat almond milk for this recipe but feel free to use any milk you want or you can use water.
For a protein/nutrition boost, add more protein powder or consider adding some Primal Kitchen’s collagen protein!
