I can’t be the only one who doesn’t really like eating plain fruit, even if they’re naturally sweet – or even very sweet for that matter.
To tell you the truth, I would prefer if the fruit weren’t that sweet coz that means they have less sugar. But since I do have quite a few sweet teeth, I’d just use them up in some recipe and add stevia or something to get them to taste better.
What’s needed:
Since the banana and strawberries are both quite sweet themselves, all this smoothie bowl needs in addition is some yogurt. No milk in this recipe!
To keep it Vegan, Paleo-friendly and dairy free too, use low fat Coconut Yogurt. Its super creamy and also adds some protein to this bowl. A light coconut milk – or even almond or regular milk – would be just fine, but it would take most of the protein out.
If you want it sweeter, add some stevia or monk fruit sweetener.
How to make?
Not only is this recipe healthy, its also super easy to put together.
- Slice and freeze bananas and strawberries for about 1-2 hours.
- Blend frozen fruit in a food processor/blender with the yogurt.
If you freeze the chopped fruit in advance or buy frozen fruit, it’ll take you just 5 minutes to get a bowl of this dessert out to the table.
Dessert because its like strawberry banana nice cream!
Quite a sweet deal!
