I love this recipe because I can very easily adapt it to make a smoothie, ice cream or simple acai bowl. The delicious blend of ingredients and antioxidants make it a go-to healthy snack or meal!

1 tbsp. acai powder
1 frozen banana
1 handful mixed berries
2 pitted dates (optional)
Choice of toppings: granola, goji berris, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, sliced nuts, etc.
Directions:
- Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until you reach your desired consistency
- Top with your favorite granola, goji berries, chia seeds, nuts and enjoy!
