Super Berry Acai Bowl

Super Berry Acai Bowl

·

Meet the new love of my life, the acai bowl!

There’s nothing quite as wonderful as a thick smoothie in a bowl loaded with crunchy granola (and I mean loaded because it’s just so good that way), fresh berries and toasted coconut. I’ll take one every day please!

The acai (pronounced ah-sigh-EE)  bowl has truly become something of a phenomenon. It has captured the hearts of many and is right up there with avocado toast and matcha anything. The acai berry itself is native to Brazil and has been touted as a ‘superfood’ for good reason. The berries are packed with antioxidants and are a good source of essential amino’s and omega fatty acids. Flavor wise it is a rich combination of black berries and dark chocolate. Delicious right! And when mixed with other berries it’s a healthy and flavorful ‘super’ berry cocktail. Top off your acai bowl with an assortment of fruits, nuts, seeds and a good helping of crunchy granola and you’ve got yourself a great start to the day. But the acai bowl isn’t just for mornings, you can enjoy one anytime time of day…morning, noon or night!
