blue smoothie bowlI’m going to be honest, I have an obsession with blue smoothie bowls.

Its some combination of the dreamy color, the creaminess of the bowl, and the mystery behind the flavor. Anyone else totally buying into this craze?

Pair the beautiful blue spirulina with naturally sweet banana, fuel-packed sweet potato, and add a splash of vanilla for extra flavor!
