Ingredients

  • 1 cup Frozen Strawberries sliced and frozen
  • 1 whole Banana sliced and frozen
  • 1 Tablespoon Acai Powder or 1 frozen acai packet
  • cup Milk
  • 1 Tablespoon Honey or maple syrup
  • 1 Tablespoon Almond Butter optional

Toppings

  • ¼ cup Granola
  • ½ cup Strawberries sliced
  • ½ large Banana sliced
  • 2 Tablespoons Mango diced
  • 2 Tablespoons Honey or maple syrup

Instructions

  • Cut strawberries and bananas into 1" chunks, transfer to a sheet pan lined with parchment paper and freeze in a single layer for about 1 hour, or until completely frozen. (Note: if you are making this ahead of time, you can transfer the frozen fruit to a large freezer bag or container once frozen)
  • In a high powered blender, add the frozen strawberries (or berries), frozen banana, acai powder, milk, honey and almond butter to the blender. Blend until completely smooth, adding a bit more milk as needed until you reach a thick frozen smoothie texture.
  • Divide the smoothie into 2 bowls, then top with granola, fresh strawberries, fresh bananas, fresh mango and a drizzle of honey. Enjoy!
