Spirulina smoothie bowl
Instructions
Tips
Spirulina powder provides the base for the smoothie bowl, so you should opt for a premium product that offers the best rich, earthy flavour. But remember that a little goes a long way when it comes to this powder – stick to the recipe and only add 1 tsp. You can always add a bit more but start slowly with just 1 tsp.
Tips
Remember to serve it immediately after blending. The magic lies in its fresh taste and the crunchy contrast of the toppings. Over time, the fruits could start to oxidise, and the toppings may lose their crunch, so capture the moment and enjoy your smoothie bowl at its peak.

Bright green spirulina smoothie bowl – creamy and full of flavour
Enjoy a refreshing and vibrant breakfast with our bright green spirulina smoothie bowl. The stunning green hue is as visually pleasing as it is tasty thanks to the addition of spirulina powder. The magic of this bowl lies in its taste and texture, combining the earthiness and oceanic taste of spirulina with the creamy consistency of Greek yogurt and the sweetness of honey. The result is a perfectly smooth and full-bodied bowl that dances on your palate, making it a delightful and colourful way to kickstart your day. If you cannot get enough of these fruity, creamy bowls, we have plenty of recipes for you to try out. For instance, a mango smoothie bowl topped with granola and fresh fruit, a green smoothie bowl with skyr and spinach or a classic chia bowl with milk, fresh raspberries, and mangos.
With tangy, creamy Greek yogurt and sweet honey
Greek yogurt adds a tangy, creamy contrast to the spirulina powder, mellowing out its intense earthy and oceanic flavours. But the rich, creamy texture of the yogurt also contributes to the overall body of the smoothie bowl, making it feel more indulgent and satisfying. Meanwhile, the honey acts as a natural sweetener alongside the banana. The subtle sweetness marries the tanginess of the yogurt and the earthiness of the spirulina, which harmonises the overall taste.
Add something sweet, something sour, and something nutty on top
Toppings are a fun and delicious way to add more flavour and can take any bowl from good to great. Sweet banana slices add a delightfully soft texture and natural sweetness that complement the more robust spirulina flavour. The tangy-sweet blueberries and sour kiwi slices introduce a tart element that cuts through the creaminess of the Greek yogurt, creating a perfect harmony of flavours. To round it all off, we have some nutty additions. The toasted walnuts and buckwheat flakes deliver a desirable crunch and rich nuttiness that contrasts beautifully with the other softer, juicier components. With each bite of the green spirulina bowl, you get a bit of sweet, a bit of sour, and a bit of nutty, making each mouthful a delicious adventure.
Experiment a bit: make it thick and icy
If you fancy a more refreshing take on your spirulina bowl, we suggest using frozen fruits. Pop in some frozen bananas instead of the fresh banana or a handful of your favourite frozen berries and fruits. Not only will it ramp up the flavour and add a hint of sweetness, but it will also give it a thick, almost ice-cream-like texture. The result is a sumptuously thick and icy smoothie bowl that is perfect for getting you out of bed in the morning. The frosty change in texture provides a delightful contrast to the crunchy toppings, making each bite an icy, creamy, crunchy sensation that you will keep coming back to.
