# Directions:

01 - In a high-powered blender, combine the frozen banana, frozen mixed berries, Greek yogurt, vanilla protein powder, unsweetened almond milk, and chia seeds. Begin blending on a low speed, gradually increasing to high until the mixture is smooth and has a thick, creamy consistency.

02 - Divide the blended smoothie base equally between two serving bowls.
03 - Artfully arrange the fresh mixed berries, granola, shredded coconut, chia seeds, and sliced almonds over the surface of each smoothie bowl. If desired, finish with a delicate drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
