Instructions
- Blend the smoothie base: In a blender, combine the frozen mango, pineapple, banana, coconut milk, honey, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides. Add a little more coconut milk if the smoothie is too thick and hard to blend.
- Assemble the smoothie bowl: Pour the smoothie into a bowl, using a spoon to spread it out evenly.
- Add the toppings: Top the smoothie bowl with your choice of toppings. Start with granola for crunch, then add fresh fruit, chia seeds, shredded coconut, and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness.
- Serve: Enjoy immediately while it’s fresh and cold!
Notes
- Add Protein: Blend in some Greek yogurt, protein powder, or a scoop of nut butter for an extra protein boost.
- Vegan: For a vegan option, ensure you’re using a plant-based milk and sweetener like maple syrup.
- Tropical Greens: Add a handful of spinach or kale to the smoothie base for a green twist. The fruit flavors will still shine through, and you’ll get an extra serving of veggies.
- Other Toppings: Get creative with your toppings! You can add nuts (like almonds or cashews), dried fruit (like goji berries or raisins), or even a sprinkle of cinnamon for a different flavor profile.
