Smoothie bowls are one of my go-to’s for weekend breakfasts, when I have time to sit down and eat breakfast rather than taking my morning smoothie to go. A thick, creamy smoothie base topped with all the delicious toppings? Yes, please! It’s like a healthy dessert for breakfast. The best part about smoothie bowls is that they are completely customizable based on your preferences, or what you have on hand. By choosing high fiber, antioxidant-rich and anti-inflammatory ingredients and toppings smoothie bowls can be a gut health superstar. All of the anti-inflammatory ingredients make this recipe a great option for those with hormonal conditions such as PCOS.
