Acai bowls are like driving for the first time. It looks awesome, you want to do it but it looks like a lot of effort to learn and intimidating… however, then you do it and it’s easy… for most.

Instructions
VERY IMPORTANT. Get everything prepped before you blend your acai puree so that it doesn’t start melting as you do everything else.
Cut banana, wash and prep all topping so they are ready to go before acai step.
Blend together juice, milk and acai puree. Add in spirulina and greek yogurt as well if you use it. If needed add more juice but better to start with less than more.
Pour smoothie contents into bowls. Add your toppings as pinteresty as possible.
Take a picture and make everyone think you’re better than you are.
Next time dress it up… serve it in a carved out pineapple or melon!
