Superfood Peanut Butter and Berry Smoothie Bowl

Superfood Peanut Butter and Berry Smoothie is a creamy and flavorful smoothie bowl packed with probiotics and vitamins. This bowl tastes like a decadent peanut butter and jelly sandwich and makes for a revitalizing brunch or post workout snack. The Navitas Organics Superfood blend provides extra nutrition and flavor.

We used to spend our summers interning or attending summer school at the University of Hawaii. In our free time, we'd go to the beach, hike, and eat all the delicious food Honolulu has to offer. Whenever we go back to Oahu, we visit our favorite smoothie shop in Kaimuki.

This shop has dozens of tropical juices and smoothie bowls made from organic fruit. One of our favorite smoothie bowls to get after a hot beach day tastes exactly like a pb & j! Since most of the smoothie shops in SF only offer açai bowls, we recreated our favorite peanut butter and berry bowl at home. We add Navitas Organics' Essential Superfood Blend to take our soomthie bowl to the next level with added protein, superfoods, and probiotics.

Top Tips to Make a Perfect Smoothie

1. Add liquid - Liquid helps the frozen smoothie ingredients blend more smoothly. If your smoothie isn't blending fully or is too thick, add more plant-based milk starting with a quarter cup at a time.
2. Frozen fruit - Using frozen fruit keeps the smoothie cold and frozen without diluting the flavor.
3. Blend long enough - Blend your smoothie until the ingredients are incorporated and smooth, which may take around 2 minutes. To make a perfectly blended smoothie, blend ingredients on a low speed then increase the speed until the ingredients are smooth.
