Ingredients

1/2 cup frozen strawberries
1 banana

1 grapefruit
1/4 cup plain yogurt

2 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger

Instructions

Step 1: If using the grapefruit as a bowl, cut it in half and carefully scoop out the fruit, leaving the peel intact.
Step 2: In a strong blender, combine frozen strawberries, banana, grapefruit segments, plain yogurt, honey, and fresh ginger. Blend until smooth. Add a splash of milk if needed to help blend, but keep the mixture thicker than a typical smoothie.
Step 3: Pour the thick smoothie mixture into the hollowed grapefruit halves or your preferred bowl.

Step 4: Top with your favorite fruits and seeds. Kiwi, chia seeds, shaved coconut, additional banana slices, and fresh berries all make excellent toppings.

Tips & Variations

For a dairy-free version, substitute plain yogurt with coconut or almond yogurt.
Add a handful of spinach or kale for a nutrient boost without altering the flavor much.

Adjust the honey amount to taste or use maple syrup as a natural sweetener alternative.
Chill the grapefruit halves briefly before serving for a cooler presentation.

Storage

Because smoothie bowls are best enjoyed fresh, it’s ideal to consume them immediately. If you need to store leftovers, place the smoothie mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Stir well before eating and add fresh toppings just before serving.

How to Serve

The image shows a smoothie served inside a hollowed-out orange half, placed on a white marbled surface. The smoothie is light pink and fills the orange shell completely. On top, there are three slices of bright green kiwi arranged in a neat row on one side, some white coconut flakes scattered around, and small black chia seeds sprinkled over the surface. A gold spoon is dipping into the smoothie from the bottom center of the orange. Surrounding this smoothie bowl, there are other halved fruits visible, including red grapefruit halves, all on the white marbled background. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use fresh strawberries instead of frozen?

Yes, but the smoothie bowl will be less thick and less chilled. You can add a few ice cubes or freeze the banana slices ahead of time for a colder texture.

What can I use if I don’t have fresh ginger?

Ground ginger can be used as a substitute; start with 1/4 teaspoon since it’s more concentrated. Alternatively, you can omit it if you prefer a milder flavor.
