It’s nearly the end of #BreakfastWeek! Can you believe it? But don’t worry, there’s still one more video and recipe coming tomorrow! Are you caught up on everything we’ve had so far? Monday was a video on how to make the PERFECT Oatmeal, Tuesday we had some AMAZING healthy banana pancakes, yesterday was bircher muesli, the ultimate overnight oats, and today is smoothie bowls!
These delicious bowls of sunshine just make me happy in the morning, how could a breakfast that looks this pretty not make you happy?! This post contains 3 different recipes for smoothie bowls so check them all out and let me know which is your favourite in the comments!
Now, this week we’ve covered lots of easy breakfasts, but I’m also into easy dinners. I’ve written you a recipe book of 5 ingredient dinners to help you cook smarter and faster when you need it most. The book is totally free, my little gift to you :) Get your copy below :)
So smoothie bowls… These are such a fun way to get all that fresh produce you should be eating into your body right at the start of the day. All three of these recipes are super easy, starting with the same base and then customised. None of them have super wacky ingredients, just good old whole ingredients that can be found and made really quickly. I love decorating smoothie bowls, there’s something weirdly therapeutic about it! But you don’t have to decorate them at all, you could simply have them as they are or throw it all on top! Keep reading for the 3 recipes!
