Hi team,
Ok I know what you’re thinking… I must be coming down with something if I’m writing twice in 1 week (2 days in a row even!!) but once you try this recipe what, you will understand the need. This smoothie bowl needs to be tasted to be believed. I could not keep this to myself…
Ingredients
1 Banana
1 cup of boiled kumara (I used the bright purple and the orange on the inside but purple on the outside kind)
2 tbsp peanut butter
1/2c almond/coconut milk (I just added what I had left in the carton)
Dates (lots of them)
A dash of maple syrup (is that a thing?)
2 big handfuls of green leaves (I used baby kale and spinach)
Handful of cashews
1tbsp cacao powder
1/4tsp cinnamon
Method
- Boil chopped up kumara. Wait until it cools down. I didn’t because I’m impatient but you probably should because I ended up eating a lukewarm bowl haha
- Put everything in blender and blend. If it’s too thick, add a splash of water
- Serve it in a bowl with your favourite fancy toppings!
You should be left with the creamiest, smoothiest, most chocolatey, amazing smoothie ever. I love this smoothie because of the kumara. Like who thought of this? Because I want to kiss them. It makes me feel like the possibilities are endless!! If a kumara can be in a smoothie, then anything is possible! It’s 2017… kumara is no longer confined to Sunday roasts! How liberating!
Special thanks to my mates at Bowl and Arrow for inspiring this smoothie bowl. I couldn’t stop thinking about theirs so I had to try make my own.
Also, feel free to add or subtract whatever ingredients to suit your taste! Go wild!
Enjoy!
