Variations
I sometimes add spinach for extra greens without changing the flavor too much. When I want more protein, I blend in protein powder or extra Greek yogurt. I also enjoy using pineapple instead of mango for a tropical twist. For a creamier texture, I occasionally add avocado or coconut milk. If I want more crunch, I top the bowl with cacao nibs or crushed nuts.
storage/reheating
I prefer serving this smoothie bowl immediately for the best thick and creamy texture. If needed, I store leftovers in the freezer for a short time and blend again before serving. Since this recipe is meant to be cold and refreshing, I do not reheat it.
