TOPPING OPTIONS:

You’ve seen the pictures taking over Instagram – all those beautiful #SmoothieBowls. So have some fun, it’s your turn to try it. We’ve got a few simple topping ideas for you:

• Chia Seeds
• Toasted Coconut Chips or toasted desiccated coconut. Place coconut on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Sprinkle with some salt and cinnamon (if desired). Bake in the oven at about 120 degrees Celsius until they are very lightly browned and crisp. OR, toast the desiccated coconut on a non-stick pan on the stove top at a low heat.
• Toasted Seeds, incl sunflowers, pumpkin and Sesame seeds
• Fruit Slices
• Apple Chips – slice your apple into thin slices. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake in the oven at a low temperature until they crisp. Just before taking them out, sprinkle some cinnamon on top for that extra flavour. 
• Roasted Nuts (whole or chopped)
• Nut butter, or Tahini
