Total Time: 10 minutes

Servings: 2

Skill Level: Easy

Ingredients:

• 1 dragon fruit, peeled and cubed
• 1 banana, frozen and sliced
• 1/2 cup coconut milk
• 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (optional for extra creaminess)
• 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• For Toppings:
• Fresh berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)
• Sliced kiwi
• Chia seeds or flaxseeds
• Granola
• Coconut flakes

Instructions:

1. In a high-speed blender, combine the dragon fruit, frozen banana, coconut milk, Greek yogurt (if using), honey, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.
2. Take a moment to inhale the fresh, tropical aroma of the blended fruits. The vibrant pink hue will certainly catch your eye!
3. Pour the smoothie into two bowls, using a spatula to evenly distribute.
4. Now comes the fun part – toppings! Add a colorful array of fresh berries, kiwi slices, and a generous sprinkle of chia seeds, granola, and coconut flakes. Enjoy the crunch and burst of flavors with each spoonful!

Helpful Tips and Variations:

• If dragon fruit is not available, substitute with frozen mixed berries or mango for a different tropical twist.
• For a nutty flavor, add a tablespoon of almond or peanut butter to the smoothie mixture.
• For a chilled, extra refreshing experience, pop your smoothie bowls in the freezer for about 10 minutes before serving.

Storage and Substitutions:

• If you have any leftovers, store the smoothie mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Stir well before serving again.
• For a dairy-free version, omit the Greek yogurt or replace it with a plant-based alternative.
• If honey or agave is not available, a ripe banana or dates can add natural sweetness.

This Dragon Fruit Coconut Smoothie Bowl pairs beautifully with a light, crunchy cucumber and mint salad or whole grain toast with avocado spread for a wholesome meal.
