This summer fruits smoothie bowl is a great breakfast or snack which literally takes a few minutes to make.

To add to the nutrition I’ve added chia and flax seeds. They not only add fibre and nutrients such as omega 3s fatty acids, they also make this more filling.Β Β 

Nutritional Highlights

βœ…Β Rich in antioxidants: berries are packed with vitamin C and polyphenols.
βœ…Β High in fibre: flax and chia seeds, along with banana and berries provide 10g of fibre per portion.
βœ…Β Healthy fats: flax and chia seeds provide omega-3 fatty acids.
βœ…Β Natural energy boost: banana and berries adds natural sweetness.

Recipe tips:

  • If you want more protein, feel free to add a tbsp or two of protein powder.
  • Add any fresh seasonal fruit, if you don’t have berries.Β Pineapple or mango work well for a more tropical taste.Β 
  • You really need a high-powered blender for this.Β You can get away with a less powerful one if you add a bit more milk but then your consistency won’t be quite as good.
  • Also a good tip is to leave the bananas out of the freezer for 5-10 minutes before you start blending. They soften slightly, so they are a little bit easier to blend.
