HOW TO MAKE AN ACAI BOWL

Hey Queens n’ Kings,
How To Make An Açaí Bowl
Happy Wednesday friends! I recently made an açaí bowl and I wanted to share my recipe. I get asked often what is Acai and I wanted to briefly explain its origin. The acai berry is a superfood (I believe) grown on palm trees in Brazil. Acai resembles the look of a blueberry/grape and is packed with nutrients. It is my healthy alternative snack instead of ice-cream. Acai comes in a puree and powder form. I use the frozen puree from Sambazon and it can be made into an ice-cream or smoothie like consistency. You can be as creative with it as you like and add as many fruit toppings as your heart desires!

For my bowl I chose four superfoods as toppings: Blueberries, Strawberries, Mangoes, and Chia seeds. I will briefly tell you why I chose each one. I also blended a banana, which is another superfood in with the açaí puree.

1. Blueberries are like the most powerful of fruits to me! Packed with antioxidants, vitamin C, and fiber they act as a natural sweetener for my açaí bowl as well!

2. Strawberries, rich in vitamin C, folate, and potassium help to boost the immune system. They also act as a natural sweetener.

3. Mangoes, especially rich in vitamins C and E, antioxidants, and fiber! Adds sweetness too!

4. Chia Seeds, are an excellent source of omega 3 fats, magnesium, calcium, fiber and more! Can’t poop? Eat Chia in some way shape or form. For chia to be a seed you get a TON of health benefits, it’s a great source for calcium and iron as well!

I hope I helped you guys learn a bit about superfoods and how to make an açaí bowl. From this point on, I will be sharing more recipes because I am passionate about healthy eating/lifestyle. I have always been passionate about food honestly, my first dream was to be a chef. The love has never left me so I feel God is instructing me to not be afraid and do something with it! So I will use the platform I already built to share both my passions for Beauty and Food! There! I put it out there so now all of you have to send me requests and hold me accountable (As you are my accountability partners). Anywho, if you try this recipe please let me know how you liked it on either IG @cmichellestyles or my Youtube channel.
