There are a few things I regularly look forward to when it comes to the weekends. Quality family time, good food, better libations, and comfy clothes. Give me those four things and I’m a happy woman. This past weekend, we decided to try our hands at homemade açai bowls. We used to make them all the time, but over the past couple of years haven’t been as “into them” as we once were. Yet, the other weekend we stopped by our old favorite spot for tasty bowls, and Harper was in food heaven. Literally. Naturally, we decided this was something we needed to recreate at home with our own twist. So, we tossed in some chocolate, added in our favorite granola, and what we had was a delicious lunchtime treat (and don’t mind me, I still hadn’t put on any make-up for the day….). Anytime I can can get Harper in on the cooking, or assembly of it, I’m all for it. She loved tossing the items in the blender, and pushing the “blend” button…. and eating toppings along the way! If you’re looking for a delicious food option for this weekend, yo’ll love this bowl!

Chocolate Açai Bowl

1 packet of Açai (frozen)
1 scoop Vega Chocolate Protein Powder (option, if you prefer the regular açai flavor, leave out)
1 cup Frozen Cauliflower Rice
1/4-1/2 cup Almond Milk (start with the lesser amount)

Toppings:

Purely Elizabeth Chocolate Granola
Almond Butter
Hemp Seeds
Chia Seeds
Banana
Strawberries

Directions:
Break up Açai (in packaging to avoid a mess) and then toss into powerful blender (I use a VitaMix). Add cauliflower rice, protein powder, + almond milk (for a thicker consistency, start with a smaller amount of liquid and continually add until blended to your preferred consistency). Pour into a bowl and top with above toppings. Drizzle with almond butter.

Annnnd, because there’s nothing better than hanging around in lounge-y thangs on the weekend I’m sharing a few other favorites….. like this thermal short + tee set, adorable blush stripe set, floral set, and this cute little floral set + mermaid set for the little lady in your life! I hope you all have a great weekend! Cheers!

Oh, and no, we don’t make it a regular occurrence to eat messy bowls in bed…. it’s just the best place for lighting in our house, so… you know, you do what you gotta do!
