Protein filled Acai Bowl

Ingredient
 
Base:
    • 2 frozen unsweetened acai packets (100g each)
    • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (whey or vegan)
    • 1/2 cup frozen banana chunks
    • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (nonfat or full fat)
    • 1/4 – 1/2 cup milk of choice (almond, soy, or dairy)
    • Optional: 1 tbsp peanut butter or almond butter
    •  
  • Toppings:
    • Granola
    • Sliced bananas
    • Chia seeds or hemp seeds
    • Berries
Instructions
 
Add Liquids First: Add the milk to your blender first to ensure a smooth blend.
  1. Blend Base: Add the frozen acai packets, protein powder, frozen bananas, Greek yogurt, and optional nut butter. Blend on low, gradually increasing to high speed until the mixture is thick and smooth.
    • Tip: Do not over-blend, or it will become a smoothie instead of a thick bowl.
  2. Serve: Pour into a chilled bowl.
  3. Add Toppings: Top with granola, fruit, and seeds.
 
Key Tips for the Perfect Bowl
 
     Keep it Thick: Use a high-powered blender or food processor. If the blender gets stuck, add more milk 1 tablespoon at a time.
  • Protein Boost: Greek yogurt is key for creamy texture and extra protein, while vanilla protein powder adds flavor and nutrition.
  • Meal Prep: Keep frozen acai packets and sliced bananas in your freezer to make this quickly.
