Summer is back and Açaí bowls are one of my FAVORITE smoothie bowl flavors to make when the weather is hot! Açaí berries are high in anti-oxidants, plus it's like eating ice cream for breakfast! These bowls are super easy to throw together in minutes in the morning. Here are three of my all time favorite Açaí bowl recipes:

I typically purchase my unsweetened Açaí packets at Sprouts, Smiths, Trader Joe’s or any health food store.. They are becoming more mainstream, so some local supermarkets may carry them!  If you can’t find them, sub in 100g of frozen berries such as blueberries or strawberries.
