Top tips when making Protein Smoothie Bowl

• Use a frozen banana for an extra thick and creamy texture, it’s like soft-serve.
• Add chia seeds or flaxseeds to boost fibre and omega-3s.
• For a dairy-free version, use coconut yoghurt and a plant-based protein powder.
• Blend your base thick and start with less milk, adding more as needed for your ideal consistency.
• Don’t blend the toppings, add them last to keep the crunch.
