Packed with yoghurt, fruits, veggies, grains, dry fruits, granola, seeds and nuts, smoothie bowls are light, delicious and healthy meals for summers. Here are some tips to help you make the best of them.
Wash, clean and then use all the fresh ingredients for your smoothie bowl to avoid any contamination and stomach ailments.
A good blender is the key to smoothies that are thick, smooth and delicious no matter what ingredients you use.
Always pick seasonal and fresh fruits, veggies and leafy greens for your smoothies.
If you add syrups or fruit juices, you will end up consuming too much concentrated sugar and preservatives.
Apart from yoghurt and milk, you can also use protein-rich bases like dairy-free yoghurt, soy milk, almond milk and other suitable ingredients.
Smoothie bowls are healthy but are also packed with plenty of calories, so make sure you manage the portion size and don’t overeat.
Don’t shy away from experimenting with a variety of ingredients, whether they are fresh fruits, veggies, dry fruits, nuts, seeds and grains.
