nosh magazine These frozen banana soft serve meals are refreshing. Most mornings I do some sort of activity, be it a walk or yoga, and as a result I get a little flushed. These bowls are just the thing to nourish and cool my body. What I love about frozen bananas is that they make the creamiest, thickest smoothies. Serving this goodness in a bowl is just a fun way to get all outrageous and eat your drink! If I’m short on time I’ll serve it in a glass like a regular person, but a smoothie bowl is kind of fun. I’m all about toasting nuts and seeds as they summon the most wholesome, earthy fragrance and flavour and make the perfect porridge, yoghurt and smooth bowl topping. I’ll toast a bunch (adding my favourite sunflower seeds first as they take longer to brown than pumpkin seeds) and scatter them my breakfasts and salads or baked goods during the day for extra protein and healthy fats. Sunflower and pumpkin seeds are my chosen topping here, along with a spoon of coconut oil and sprinkle of sea salt for flavour, but you can go nuts with whatever additions you like. Fresh berries would be a delight, as would a spoon of raw cacao powder if you wanted to go in the chocolate direction. That’s usually always a good idea at breakfast time. Next time I fancy using coconut milk in the puree and chopped mango as a topping, and I’ll have myself a joyous tropical smoothie bowl – yes! NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION PER SERVE
