According to the calendar, summertime started on 29.03. The weather is also playing along quite well from time to time. So that we can slowly but surely get in the mood for summertime, we have a refreshing açaí bowl with fruit.
Did you know that the famous açaí bowl is a Brazilian specialty from Pará and Amazonas? It is a dish made from the frozen and crushed fruits of the açaí palm.
The açaí berry is also a real superfruit. It comes from açaí palms and contains huge amounts of antioxidants that bind free radicals in the body and thus protect cells from premature ageing. This is why the superfruit is also considered an anti-ageing miracle. The berries also contain a large number of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids and lots of protein, which boost the metabolism and have an appetite-suppressing effect.
And most importantly, açaí berries taste suuuuper delicious.
Feel like it? With the Thermomix quick and easy way to a tasty and healthy bowl:
1) Place 1 banana, 150g frozen berries, 20g rolled oats, 200g coconut milk in the blender jug and blend at speed 10 for 30 seconds.
2) Pour the smoothie into a bowl and top with toppings (also delicious: coconut flakes, chocolate nobs, nuts and much more)
Enjoy your meal!
