Can I use fresh fruit instead of frozen?

Oh, I get this one all the time! While fresh fruit works in a pinch, frozen is the way to go for that perfect thick, spoonable texture. Fresh fruit makes the bowl too runny—though you can freeze your fresh chunks overnight if you're in a bind!

Is Greek yogurt really necessary?

It adds creaminess and protein, but you can totally skip it or sub with coconut yogurt for a vegan version. The bowl will be slightly less rich, but still delicious.

Help—my smoothie bowl is too thick/thin!

No sweat! Too thick? Add coconut milk 1 teaspoon at a time. Too thin? Toss in a few more frozen fruit chunks or a handful of ice and blend again.

Can I make this ahead?

Honestly? It's best fresh. The texture gets weird when stored. But you can prep the frozen fruit mix in bags for faster blending later!
