Summertime is the perfect time for a cool treat and smoothie bowls are great way to satisfy your sweet tooth. Because they are thick, you can devour from a bowl with a spoon and your choice of toppings! This bowl is lower in saturated fats and higher in protein than ice cream but still hits the sweet spot. The banana makes it sweet and thick, and just like with ice cream, the topping options are endless.
