Frequently Asked Questions

Expand All:
Can I use other leafy greens instead of spinach?

Yes, you can substitute spinach with kale, arugula, or even Swiss chard. However, keep in mind that kale may have a slightly stronger flavor.

Yes, you can add a scoop of your favorite protein powder to the smoothie base for an extra protein boost. Choose a flavor that complements the fruits, like vanilla or unflavored.

What’s the best way to freeze bananas?

Peel the bananas first, slice them, and store them in an airtight container or zip-top bag in the freezer. This makes them easy to blend later.

Are there low-carb options for this smoothie bowl?

Yes, you can reduce the fruit content and use low-carb fruits like avocado or berries. Consider replacing granola with chopped nuts or seeds.
