Green Matcha Smoothie Bowl

This Green Matcha Smoothie Bowl makes a perfect summer treat. Made with bananas, kiwis, matcha powder and almond milk – it tastes like ice cream and has only 180 calories!

I love everything about this Green Matcha Smoothie Bowl: the ingredients, the ice-cream taste, the texture, the color and the health benefits. And it also looks so pretty!!! I usually make this treat for breakfast, or enjoy it in the afternoon, right after my workout. It satisfies my hunger and craving for sweet, it is low-cal and it has no added sugar.

I discovered Matcha Powder a while ago, while working at Starbucks, and was so surprised to find out that is has A LOT of health benefits. Here is a short paragraph from MatchaSource.com about this topic:

Amongst its many health benefits, matcha…

• Is packed with antioxidants including the powerful EGCg
• Boosts metabolism and burns calories

• Calms the mind and relaxes the body
• Is rich in fiber, chlorophyll and vitamins
• Enhances mood and aids in concentration

When it comes to buying matcha, I found this one from Amazon to be the best and also one of the cheapest. You can also buy it from many health-food stores.

Once you get your hands on some good matcha powder, you’ll need just a few more ingredients. Here is a list:

• 2 sliced and frozen bananas
• 2 sliced fresh kiwis
• 1 cup almond milk (I use Silk Almond Milk)
• 2 tbsp matcha
• toppings: poppy seeds, pine nuts, chopped kiwis (you may also use fresh berries, chocolate shavings, shredded coconut, almonds and other similar toppings)

And blend, blend, blend until it looks like this.  ⬇

Simple, tasty, healthy and refreshing!
