# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • This bowl tricks you into eating a serving of greens before noon without tasting a hint of vegetable.
  • The combination of healthy fats and fiber keeps hunger at bay until lunch, no mid-morning snack needed.
02 -
  • Freezing the bowl for 10 minutes before serving keeps your smoothie thick and spoonable longer, especially important on hot days.
  • Adding just half an avocado makes the bowl impossibly creamy without overpowering the flavor, while using a whole one can make it too rich and mask the bright kiwi notes.
03 -
  • For the most photogenic bowl, chill your serving dishes in the freezer while preparing the smoothie, which prevents premature melting and keeps everything picture-perfect for longer.
  • When using kiwi, select fruits that yield slightly to gentle pressure but arent soft, as overly ripe kiwis can make the smoothie watery while underripe ones lack sweetness.
