What is a smoothie bowl?
A smoothie bowl usually consists of a thick blend of frozen fruits and/or vegetables, often times, with other mix-ins. The consistency is almost ice cream like.

What makes the smoothie bowl thick?
Frozen fruit! Although almost any fruit will work, bananas really help give smoothie bowls that ice cream consistency. If you’re on Pinterest, I’m sure you have seen those “nice cream” recipes made with frozen bananas …. smoothie bowls along the same concept.
What if I prefer a less thick smoothie bowl?
Small amounts of water, milk, or fruit juice may be added to thin out the smoothie bowl.
What if I prefer a thicker smoothie bowl?
You can add oatmeal, chia seeds, yogurt, silken tofu, or avocado! Oatmeal is my favorite smoothie thickener – and it’s best to grind it to a flour like texture BEFORE adding any other ingredients.

How long can I refrigerate a smoothie bowl?
Fresh is best. And really, for how fast and easy it is to put together, you really should try to go that route. However, if you need to make it ahead, it is best to use the smoothie within 24 hours. It should be noted, as the fruit thaws, the smoothie will be less thick. Using some of the thickeners mentioned above are a good way to help keep it thick.
