A quick and easy fresh superfood bowl packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and fiber, perfect for a nourishing pick-me-up any time of day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup fresh baby spinach (washed and patted dry)
  • 1 cup kale, stems removed and finely chopped
  • ½ cup fresh or frozen mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)
  • 1 ripe avocado, sliced or diced
  • 1 small banana, sliced (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds (soaked in ¼ cup water for 10 minutes)
  • 1 tablespoon hemp seeds
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk or your favorite plant-based milk
  • 1 teaspoon raw honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • Pinch of ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Soak the chia seeds: Combine 2 tablespoons chia seeds with ¼ cup (60 ml) water in a small bowl. Stir and let sit for about 10 minutes until gel-like.
  2. Prepare the greens: Rinse 1 cup baby spinach and 1 cup kale thoroughly. Remove kale stems and finely chop leaves. Pat dry.
  3. Slice the fruit: Slice 1 ripe avocado, ½ cup mixed berries, and 1 small banana if using. Arrange fruit separately to avoid mushiness.
  4. Mix the liquid base: In a mixing bowl, pour ½ cup unsweetened almond milk. Add juice of half a lemon, 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup, and a pinch of cinnamon. Whisk until combined.
  5. Assemble the bowl: Add greens to the almond milk mixture and toss gently to coat. Stir in soaked chia seeds lightly. Transfer to serving bowl. Top with sliced avocado, berries, banana, and sprinkle hemp and pumpkin seeds.

Notes

Soaking chia seeds is essential for a smooth texture. Remove kale stems to avoid bitterness. Adjust almond milk quantity to avoid sogginess. Prepare fruits and seeds ahead for quick assembly. Substitute greens and seeds as desired for variety.
