Pitaya Peach Power Smoothie Bowl
Gorgeous, healthy morning fuel! Pitaya Peach Power Smoothie Bowl is loaded with antioxidants, protein, and fresh flavor. Allergen free and easy to make!
PITAYA PEACH POWER SMOOTHIE BOWL ALL THE WAY!
I’ve been making smoothies and smoothie bowls on repeat all month long and I’m pretty much head over heels in love with this bowl. Smoothie bowls are my favorite, as they are an easy healthy breakfast, lunch or post workout snack. And there are so many ways to whip them up!!
This beautiful Pitaya Peach Power Smoothie Bowl is a delicious way to get lots of fruits and vegetables into your daily diet. And it tastes like a dessert treat!
But if you know me, you know I like to sneak in a few secretly healthy ingredients. So I added frozen riced cauliflower and a handful of kale for extra antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents.
And some of you may be wondering what gives this bowl such a stunning color – it’s Pitaya or Dragon Fruit. The Pitaya has become more and more popular within the past few years. Pitaya was first discovered in Central America hundreds of years ago. They were first named Pitaya until they reached Asia where they were renamed Dragon Fruit. Photo via Pitaya Plus.
Some key Dragon Fruit benefits are that it is high in magnesium, essential B vitamins, fiber and packed full of antioxidants. Like Good Karma, it is also excellent for allergy relief. Frozen pitaya (dragonfruit) smoothie packs are available in most grocery stores in the frozen fruit area. If you’re unable to find pitaya, try using an acai smoothie pack, which have also become readily available.
For those of you a little worried about the added cauliflower and kale in this recipe. Trust me on this one… it’s a winner! And you can’t even taste the veggies. The cauliflower just adds a creamy element, as well as packing in more veggie goodness to present you with a complete meal.
Enough said, Pitaya Peach Power Smoothie Bowl anyone?!
When it comes to toppings, a few of my favorites include:
Toasted unsweetened finely shredded coconut
Frozen bloobs
Nuts – I used raw pistachios
& Fresh fruit
I also think coconut butter, almond butter, or even a crumbled-up Paleo Lemon Blueberry Muffin would be amazing! Dream big, people – the options are endless.
I accept the fact that some people may not be into cauliflower or kale in their smoothies and smoothie bowls. And that’s okay with me. But don’t say no before you give it a try, okay? You’re going to love this colorful smoothie bowl! It’s:
Nutrient-dense
Fun to make
Gorgeous to look at
And delicious to eat!
I hope you guys LOVE this recipe and make it your own.
