A vibrant and nutritious tropical green smoothie bowl featuring dragon fruit, avocado, and hemp seeds, perfect for a quick and healthy breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 frozen banana, sliced
  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
  • 1 cup coconut water (can substitute with almond milk)
  • ½ cup frozen dragon fruit chunks
  • 2 tablespoons hemp seeds
  • ¼ cup fresh pineapple chunks (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon shredded unsweetened coconut
  • A few fresh mint leaves (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional booster)
  • 1 teaspoon spirulina powder (optional booster)

Instructions

  1. Slice the frozen banana and avocado if not already prepped. Wash the spinach leaves thoroughly. If using fresh dragon fruit, peel and cut into chunks.
  2. Add avocado, frozen banana, spinach, and coconut water into a high-speed blender. Blend on high for about 30 seconds until smooth and creamy. Add more coconut water or almond milk if too thick.
  3. Add frozen dragon fruit chunks and blend again for 15-20 seconds until the mixture turns a pinkish-green hue and is thick enough to eat with a spoon.
  4. Taste the smoothie base and adjust sweetness with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup if desired. Add more spinach for a greener flavor if preferred.
  5. Pour the smoothie base evenly into two medium-sized bowls.
  6. Sprinkle hemp seeds generously over the top, then add pineapple chunks, shredded coconut, and fresh mint leaves if using.
  7. Serve immediately for best texture and flavor. If needed, cover and refrigerate for up to 1 hour, stirring before serving if thickened.

Notes

Use frozen fruit to achieve a thick, creamy texture without adding ice. Blend in stages to preserve vibrant colors. Adjust liquid quantity carefully to avoid runny or too thick consistency. Toppings add texture and visual appeal. Store leftovers in the fridge up to 24 hours and stir in liquid before serving.
