Banana Smoothie Bowl

Banana Smoothie Bowl is one of the healthiest and filling breakfasts as it contains all the nutrients required for our skin and body. But I never tried one so far.

Today I was not in a mood to prepare a usual BREAKFAST like Upma, avalakki, etc. But wanted to go with a simple and quick breakfast as I was damn hungry. So that’s when I headed to my kitchen and saw bananas lying over on my kitchen top.

And Immediately my mind was like “why can’t you make a smoothie bowl out of these bananas?” then I said Yes My lord ( Mind 😛 ) I will prepare this for breakfast 😀 so I grabbed few more available ingredients and made this.

Trust me this turned out to be a Delicious yet so Filling Breakfast.

Let’s jump into this quick, easy and healthy recipe.
