2 ripe bananas (the riper, the sweeter)

1 scoop vanilla raw vegan warrior blend protein (any other protein works fine too!)

1 1/2 tsp cinnamon (plus a little more to sprinkle on top)

1 tsp maca root powder

1 date, chopped

Directions:

1. In some form of blender, pulse the bananas, milk, protein powder, cinnamon and maca powder until smooth.

2. Pour into bowl, sprinkle with cinnamon and some chopped date and you're good to go.

*Note: If you're in a hurry or just don't like eating smoothies from a bowl, just drink up.

Stay kickin', cinnamon lovers

Strawberry Vanilla Smoothie Bowl

I love smoothie bowls, they are a great, quick snack or small meal. There is something comforting about eating soup, and this is a fast soup-like meal. Toss in some protein powder and you're set. I'm in love with Sunwarrior Raw Vegan protein.
This is a classic smoothie bowl flavour - Strawberry Vanilla!

PS! Blender-wise, for this… just use anything that blends! I like my Cuisinart hand blender. It's fast and super easy to clean afterwards.

Ingredients:

1c frozen strawberries (sliced)
1c unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1 1/2 Tbsp Vanilla extract
1 scoop Sunwarrior raw vegan protein blend
1 Tbsp maple syrup

Directions:

1. Toss in the strawberries, vanilla extract, protein power, maple syrup, then almond milk and blend away. Presto! Cold, delicious, sweet soup.
2. Once blended to your liking, pour into a bowl and top off with some hemp hearts, pumpkin seeds and goji berries. They are all really good for you, plus it makes the smoothie bowl look really pretty.
