Chef's Notes

Substitutions
Instead of plant-based milk, use light coconut milk for even more tropical flavor.

Instead of pistachios, top with nuts or seeds of your choice for a little protein, fiber, and essential minerals.

Add more goodness and nutrition
Blend in a handful of kale or spinach for a leafy green boost.

Include a scoop of your favorite superfood powder like maca, spirulina, matcha, or acai.

Storage
Store leftover smoothie bowl base in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
