Blending
Blending techniques for perfect texture
Start by peeling and chopping the mango and avocado into small pieces. Throw them into a blender with almond milk and honey or maple syrup. Blend until smooth, leaving no lumps behind. The consistency should be thick enough to hold the toppings but smooth enough to eat with ease.
Toppings
Topping ideas for added flavor
The best way to elevate your smoothie bowl is by topping it off with sliced bananas, chia seeds, granola, or shredded coconut. These toppings will not only add texture to it but also make it more nutritious with fiber and added vitamins. You can also mix and match according to your preference.

To save some precious time in the morning, you can also prepare your ingredients (like chopped fruits) beforehand and store them in airtight containers in the refrigerator. That way, you can just toss them together to whip up your smoothie bowl in no time without any hassle when you're ready for breakfast.
