Chocolate Cherry Smoothie Bowl (Banana-Free)

By 8 Comments

Nutritious chocolate cherry smoothie bowl with almond milk, frozen cherries, berries, chocolate protein powder, raw cacao, and plenty of sweet toppings!

I kind of feel like a nomad right now, friends.

Because we’re in the process of showing and selling out home, I’ve been working out of the house almost every day.

This means I haven’t had much time to be creative in the kitchen, and breakfast is really the only meal I make and eat at home.

I was just saying on Instagram how it’s been a second since I shared a breakfast post with you.

So…here’s what’s been happening here lately.

If there’s one thing that’s making me feel at home, it’s whipping up a Chocolate Cherry Smoothie Bowl (Banana-Free).

This delicious breakfast bowl is packed with protein, fiber, antioxidants, and healthy fats that you can blend up in five minutes!

Do you have the seasonal sniffles around this time of year?

We had the windows open almost all weekend, letting the perfect 70 degree breeze waft through the condo, tickling my photography gear and paper planner.

It was all fine and good until I woke up this morning stuffy and puffy, the price for luxuriating in the spring air.

This Allergy Fighting Acai Bowl (Banana-Free!) is just what we need to ease any inflammation this season.

It’s packed with my favorite anti-inflammatory fruits that will sooth your suffering and satisfy your tastebuds.

If nothing else, it tastes and looks amazing to boot.

All you need is 10 minutes, a few cups of colorful fruit, and some topping intrigue.

Peach Raspberry Sunbutter Smoothie Bowl by Flora & Vino

Let’s talk about peachy perfection for a hot second.

I’m heading to New York today on a business trip, and sometimes before I travel I do this thing where I idealize the trip in my head and try to make all aspects of it “perfect”.

You know, imagining yourself in all of your best outfits, with that perfect hair and makeup day and your best attributes all lit up and glowy, inside and out.

The best version of yourself.

But then I remembered, amidst the hustle of packing today, my anticipation colliding with that promised future moment of perfection that never came, that there is NO PERFECT.

Except for this Peach Raspberry SunButter Smoothie Bowl… it’s pretty darn close.

Stay in the imperfectly perfect present moment with this smoothie bowl for the rest of the summer– it’s banana-free, low in sugar, and packed with everything you need to start your day well and good.

Chocolate Avocado Galaxy Bowl (Banana-Free)

Friends!

Well, I’m not finished yet.

I’m not sure what flavors you dream of for your galactic grub, but I like mine to come in chocolate.

And avocado.

Chocolate Chia Chip Yam Smoothie Bowl (Fruit-Free)

Time.

Have you got it?

I want to know– were we always this busy, or, as a collective did we suddenly take on more than we can do (and chew)?

Last night in yoga, my instructor talked about how our perceived lack of time is all a matter of mindset.

Basically, that we make time for the things that matter.

“You made time for yoga,” she said, strolling through the parted sea of down dogs to the back of the studio room.

This is true, I thought, hanging out in down dog with the clarity and calm that always finds me at the studio.

And amidst all of the ceaseless tasks and torturous to-dos, guess what?!

I also made time to make a smoothie bowl.

This Chocolate Chia Chip Yam Smoothie Bowl only requires 10 minutes and a handful of ingredients, so no excuses, because you’ve got time too, boo.

Blackberry Beet & Walnut Smoothie Bowl (Banana-Free)Hey, you.

Serious question.

Is it smoothie bowl season yet?

Or, perhaps more appropriately, is it socially acceptable smoothie bowl season yet?

Because I’ve been rocking the bowls privately (or maybe not quite so privately) all winter long, and I’m ready for the big debut.

How do you feel about something bright, bold, and BEET?

Lately, I’ve been obsessed with this Blackberry Beet & Walnut Smoothie Bowl (Banana-Free) that’s low sugar, high vibe, and perfectly packed with veg and protein.

Evergreen Smoothie Bowl (Banana Free!)

I always have a little trouble letting go of Christmas…anyone else?

We usually leave our tree decorated until New Years Day and then I try to do the disassembly as quickly as possible to avoid those poignant pangs of nostalgia.

Like ripping off a bandaid.

But for now it’s still standing, proud and present-less in our living room.

If you’re having a little trouble letting go of the red and green too, this Evergreen Smoothie Bowl is for you!

Fall-inspired banana-free smoothie bowl packed with roasted winter squash and sweet mango. Perfect for busy weekday meals and post-workout fuel.

Autumn Winter Squash Mango Smoothie Bowl (Banana-Free)

Happy November!

As I’m writing this, it’s 74 degrees outside and we have the windows open.

Needless to say, it’s unseasonably warm.

You know what that means…it’s the perfect day to share a new smoothie bowl recipe!

To be honest, after completing my “galaxy bowl” series over the summer, I felt a bit smoothie-bowl uninspired.

Don’t get me wrong, I still ate them, I just felt like all of my new combos were just different variations of the same thing.

That was before I created this Autumn Winter Squash Mango Smoothie Bowl combination that sent those galaxy bowls back to space.

Green Galaxy Smoothie Bowl

By 8 Comments

Delicious banana-free smoothie bowl that takes you to the tropics with every bite! Packed with healthy fats, protein, and leafy greens, but tastes like ice cream.

Green Galaxy Smoothie Bowl by Flora & Vino There’s something about waking up and consuming something green that makes you feel unstoppable.

This Green Galaxy Smoothie Bowl has been giving me life on mornings when I roll out of bed and ask myself:

  1. what time is it, 2. what day is it, and 3. what’s for breakfast.

The important stuff.

I had so much fun with (eating) my Blue Galaxy Bowl that I decided I might as well make an entire Galaxy Bowl series and share different galaxy color creations.

A reader requested green next, and I was secretly excited because I have a bit of a soft spot for green things before noon.

Do you?

Blue Galaxy Smoothie Bowl (Banana-Free)

Delicious banana-free smoothie bowl with antioxidants, protein, and healthy fats to start your day. Perfect post-workout or anytime you need a little boost!

Blue Galaxy Smoothie Bowl (Banana-Free)

I’ve got the whole world…in my bowl.

The name for this Blue Galaxy Bowl came from a clever Instagram comment on my original version of this bowl.

It was one of those breakfasts I threw together in a hurry, not trying to make anything extra special or “out of this world”.

The comment read, “That galaxy color” and I probably sent back a bunch of emojis in agreement and I’ve been calling them Galaxy Bowls ever since.
