This Pineapple Blueberry Acai Smoothie Bowl Is the Perfect Energizing & Tasty Breakfast or Snack.
As a runner, I almost always love a good smoothie bowl for a post run meal or snack, as they can provide the requisite carbs, hydration, fat and protein essential for recovery.
In fact, I love these bad boys so much that I make a huge pitcher of smoothies each week so we’ll have it on hand for quick breakfasts.
Given that I’m always making them and given that I am almost allergic to making the exact same thing twice, I’m constantly tinkering around with new ingredients, combinations, and ratios.
Sometimes my enthusiasm gets the best of me and I almost add too many ingredients to the smoothie. A drinkable smoothie? Sure. Pretty? Not always. Good enough that I’ll consider making again? Probably not.
The Goal
Then, a few weeks ago, I did my best to exercise enough self-control to create an acai smoothie anchored around just a few flavors: blueberry, acai, and pineapple. I wanted a juicy and hydrating smoothie with acai and blueberry as the stars.
What resulted was everything I craved. It was a more liquid smoothie so it can be served in a bowl or cup. The acai blueberry flavors made the perfect base for mostly any smoothie bowl topping. Most importantly, it was good enough for me to make again for me to bring to you. I hope it becomes a regular in your kitchen, too.
