Ocean Smoothie Bowl

During these gloomy rainy days I’ve been having, I often feel like something tropical that reminds me of fun days spent at the beach—or in an infinity pool. Just being in the sun and in the cool water. Maybe having some mango ice cream or an ice-cold drink. The smell of sunscreen and sea salt. So, because I’m dramatic, I came up with a smoothie bowl that looks a little like a beach. Pretty shade of blue, with a sandy gold shore.

I quickly assembled the most delicious tropical smoothie bowl using some frozen mango and cauliflower, and for that pretty blue, I threw in some blue spirulina. This is completely optional, but I believe you eat with your eyes first. I topped the whole thing with my favorite nut butter: cashew butter. I sprinkled some granola and pepita seeds on top and garnished it with half a passion fruit, which I’m lucky to have in relative abundance where I live (probably my favorite thing about Australia). And that’s it. It’s a bit of blending until you reach the right consistency, but just be patient and you won’t regret it.
