Gloriously Green Smoothie Bowl

I've realized there are few things I am more afraid of than time passing. I afraid of waking up one day only to know that life has passed me by. This may sound depressing, and it kind of is. But I've also found an easy way to amend that feeling. And that is to make sure that each day is a bit special, memorable in its own way. By doing something different every day you don't get stuck in habits that make you go through life with every day being just like the one before. Of course I'm now going to give you a food-related way to do this (because thoughts of food take up probably 80% of my mind): have something fun for breakfast! Mixing up your breakfast is one way to break habits and it also make starting your day so much more fun! Therefore I'm now officially naming this week breakfast week, and I'll try to share as many good breakfast recipes as possible.

The first recipe I have in store for you is a great green smoothie bowl. I've not really understood smoothie bowls until now, but this mix is a bit to thick to drink and is therefore perfect to enjoy in a bowl with some good toppings. It's super easy to make and contains oats to fill you up and loads of gloriously green stuffs to make it beautiful and stock you up on nutrients! Give it a go! Long live fun breakfasts!


For 1 lucky breakfast-eater

½ dl rolled oats
1 date
2 dl water
½ tbsp. chia seeds
½ apple, and the other half for serving
1 kiwi
¼ avocado (you can increase to ½ if you want to!)
1 tbsp. limejuice
4 mint leaves

For serving:
The second apple half
Goji berries
Coconut

Soak the oats, date and chia seeds in the water overnight. If you're smart, do it in the container of your smoothie mixer!

In the morning, add core the apple and cut it into smaller pieces. Peel the kiwi. Add all the remaining ingredients to your smoothie mixer and blitz until nice and smooth.

Pour the smoothie into a bowl and serve with the topping suggested or others that you prefer.

(You can also make a regular smoothie by adding more water!)
