Experimental Smoothie Bowls (A.K.A how to make leftovers look pretty)

Do you ever go to your fridge/pantry to see what you can make and all you have is a bunch of random ingredients that are just shy of making up a meal?

This is usually the time when I think - why not just mix it all together and make a smoothie bowl?

I'd never used kiwi fruit in a smoothie bowl before, and doubtfully wondered how it would mix with almond milk, but I had a kiwi fruit that needed using up and was in the mood for experimenting. 

My go-to smoothies usually involve Acai smoothie packs from Amazon Acai but I wanted to make this one really green. Also, I was out of Acai smoothie packs.

The kiwi fruit gave the smoothie a slightly tangy taste and I kind of wished I'd had spinach that needed to be used up instead. It wasn't bad though for a mix of leftovers and it looked kinda pretty.

Smoothie Ingredients 

- 1 cup Almond Breeze Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk

- 2 tablespoons maple syrup

- 2 teaspoons

- 1 teaspoon flaxseed oil 

- 1/2 banana

- 1/3 cup mango (I used frozen)

- 1 kiwi fruit (I recommend using a small handful of spinach leaves instead)

Toppings

- 1/4 cup Loving Earth Deluxe Clusters from Summer Hill Organic Market

- Blueberries

- Strawberries, sliced

- Banana, sliced

Steps

1. Place all smoothie ingredients in a blender and mix until smooth. 
2. Pour smoothie into a bowl. Pour a layer of buckinis over half of the smoothie then add the rest of your toppings as creatively as you like (this is my favourite part!).

Instagram then enjoy ;)
