Is it a smoothie? Is it a cereal? It’s both; a smoothie served in a bowl that you eat with a spoon. With delicious fruit, grain and seed toppings. For a thicker texture, soak the chia in water for at least an hour, or overnight.

Ingredients:

For the smoothie:

  • 150 mL water
  • 6 scoops Glucerna
  • 1 medium ripe banana
  • 4 strawberries
  • ½ cup reduced-fat Greek style (thick, strained) yoghurt
  • 2 teaspoons chia seeds
  • (plus 1/3 cup water if soaking chia first)

For the topping:

  • 2 tablespoons blueberries
  • 4 strawberries, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons bran cereal (eg flakes)
  • 2 teaspoon shredded coconut

Method:

  1. Blend smoothie ingredients. Pour into a bowl.
  2. Arrange fruits, cereal and coconut on top.

Tips:

  • Try any fresh or frozen berries, such as raspberries or mixed berries.
  • There are no rules when arranging toppings on smoothie bowls – do it however you like.
  • Swap the bran cereal for your favourite cereal, or use puffed grains such as wheat, corn, quinoa or amaranth.
