Red White and Blueberry Smoothie Bowl (Vegan) Recipe
By VegetaFull
🔪Prep Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
1½ cups (15 oz can / 425 grams) of white beans, drained and thoroughly rinsed (cannellini work well)
2 large very ripe bananas
½ cup (4 oz. / 118 ml) of full-fat coconut milk
1 tablespoon of freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 teaspoons organic lemon zest
1/8 teaspoon of fine sea salt
2 large medjool dates, pitted
2 cups of frozen strawberries
Fresh blueberries for topping
Instructions
1If using canned beans, drain and thoroughly rinse the beans to avoid a beany taste. One 15 oz. can is approximately 1½ cups. If you have cooked dried beans, just measure out 1½ cups.
2Add the beans, bananas, and coconut milk to a blender container, followed by the lemon juice, zest, salt, and dates. Feel free to use standard or “lite” coconut milk for a lighter bowl.
3Securely attach the lid to your container and blend until creamy, starting at low speed and working up to medium speed. You may have to stop and scrape down the sides of the container or use the tamper (with a Vitamix) to push the food down and around toward the blade. This will take about a minute or more, depending on what type of blender you are using.
4Pour ¾ of the white mixture which will be the consistency of loose pudding into two or three bowls. Then add the frozen strawberries to the remaining ¼ white mixture and blend until smooth. Layer the red mixture on top of the white mixture top with blueberries, and granola.
