As the weather is slowly getting warmer it’s time to swap out your hearty warm bowl of oats fora lighter more refreshing breakfast option. Acai Bowls are basically a thick smoothie and they are absolutely delicious, refreshing, and very easy to make. The acai bowl phenomenon has boomed over the last few years. It’s hard not see them everywhere from Instagram to on the cover of lifestyle magazines.

While going out to eat for one of these delicious bowls is very much worth that Instagram worthy picture, it can also be expensive. The good news here is that these bowls are very easy to make yourself at home. One tip when making acai bowls is to not use as much almond milk as you would with a smoothie, because you want your bowl to have that amazing ice cream consistency. Then you top your bowl with anything from granola to coconut flakes. It’s really that simple!
