Instructions
 

Smoothie Bowl

  • Blend together pitaya, strawberries, mango, and lime juice until smooth. Using fresh strawberries or mango will make blending easier. If needed, let smoothie thaw a bit before blending or add small amounts of water. Be careful not to add too much liquid or the smoothie bowl will lose its thickness.
  • Transfer to a bowl and top with fresh strawberries, kiwi and granola.

Granola

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine the oats, coconut, and ground flaxseed in a large bowl and stir.
  • Add in the maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla, and cinnamon and stir until well combined.
  • Spread the mixture out evenly on the prepared baking sheet to about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Bake for 25-35 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Remove from oven and cool for 10 minutes without touching the mixture. Then break up into smaller pieces and cool completely.
