Blueberry Bliss Smoothie Bowl

Blueberry Bliss Smoothie Bowl

Adding blueberries to your smoothie is a good thing! First of all, there's that intense colour! And then that flavour! Pour the smoothie into a bowl. Add a tasty plum garnish and... Mmm! So-o delicious! Blueberry bliss in every spoonful!

A Box of Freshly Picked Blueberries

I began this beautiful bowl of goodness by first creating the plum garnish. Then  I blended a frozen banana with vanilla almond milk and cup of  frozen blueberries for the base of this smoothie. I also made a lighter smoothie to blend in and make the swirls. I reserved the fresh blueberries and plum for garnishing the top.
