Chef's Notes
Making it creamier Soaking the cashews in water for 4-6 hours and draining the water before blending can help to make this smoothie bowl even creamier, but it’s not a necessary step if you forget or don’t have time.
Make it creamier and naturally sweeter Add a frozen fairtrade banana to the base ingredients.
Top with your favorite nut or seed butter.
Activate turmeric ingredients Add a dash of black pepper.
Storage
Store the base in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Store and add the toppings separately.
