Smoothie bowls are definitely trending now. And they aren’t hard to make, so why not make your own? I subscribe to Dr. Lipman’s newsletter. He’s an integrative, functional medicine MD in NY, and he recently sent out a recipe for a delicious smoothie bowl that I made the other day. It is so good that I’ve decided I need to share the recipe.
I found this to be really filling, so I made a take-to-work version for my leftovers.

This is modified from his version, but you can also modify this yourself. Note that you need to start soaking the chia seeds in your choice of milk the night before, or at least a few hours.
Ingredients
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (but of course you can use another flavour or unflavoured)
- 1 cup coconut milk (or other non-dairy or dairy milk of choice)
- 3 Tbsp chia seeds
- 1 Tbsp cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1-2 capsules reishi, opened (if you have it; you can also do 1/2 tsp maca)
- 1/ 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 avocado
- 1 Tbsp cashew butter (or other nut butter)
- 2 ice cubes
Toppings: - Berries
- Banana, sliced
- Fruit slices
- Dried fruit
- Cacao nibs
- Goji berries, dried
- Coconut flakes
- Chia seeds, flax seeds, hemp seeds
- Chopped nuts

Instructions
- Stir the chia seeds in the coconut milk (or other milk) and leave it to soak overnight in the fridge.
