This smoothie bowl is an antioxidant beast! Mixed berries are a natural sweetener, and serve as a source of many important phytonutrients. Specifically, blueberries, raspberries and strawberries are full of flavonoids, which help protect blood vessels and have anti-inflammatory benefits.

Serves 2 creamy smoothie bowls

Ingredients:

2 cups frozen mixed berries (9 ounces), plus fresh berries as a topping. I love using raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries.

1 cup almond milk, chilled

4 teaspoons chia seeds, plus extra for a topping

2 Tablespoons honey

¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

¼ teaspoon sea salt 

Optional Toppings:

• Fresh berries
• Chia seeds  
• Pepitas
• Hemp seeds 
• Crushed Raw Almonds  

Blend frozen berries, milk, chia seeds, honey, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a blender until smooth. Pour the smoothie mixture into two bowls and top with whichever garnishes your heart desires.

Enjoy!
