It’s a little quiet these days in my kitchen, and therefore here on the blog. I am suffering from the heat, plus there are a few personal issues I have to take care of at the moment, which make it hard to concentrate and find time to care about the blog with as much passion and energy as I wish to do. I hope you bear with me in the meantime! Nonetheless, there is one recipe which I created for Veganz and which suits the heat wave perfectly well, and which I therefore would like to share with you today: a coconut lemon aqua smoothie bowl!
I have used the protein shake “Kokos-Zitrone” (coconut lemon) by Veganz for the aqua smoothie bowl. The powder does not only add important proteins to the smoothie bowl, it also adds a delicious coconut and lemon taste to it. Please note that the protein shake consists of coconut sugar, I therefore recommend you do not sweeten the aqua smoothie bowl further.
I ordered my “blue majik” powder online. The natural, plant-based powder tastes almost neutral, and it adds a vibrant blue color to smoothies, smoothie bowls, baking and such. It honestly looks like magic!
Enjoy your smoothie bowl!
Love,
Lea Lou

Coconut lemon aqua smoothie bowl
For two small servings.
2 bananas, cut in pieces, frozen
70–100 ml coconut milk, or a different plant-based milk
2 tbsp Veganz Protein Shake “Kokos-Zitrone”
1–2 tsp blue majik powder
To serve (optionally):
1 baby pineapple, cut in halves and holed, used as a „bowl“ for the aqua smoothie
Desiccated coconut
Pomegranate seeds
Blueberries
Starfruit
Method:
Add the frozen banana chunks and 70 ml coconut milk to a blender, blend until you receive an ice-ceam like mixture. For a more liquid-y smoothie add a little more coconut milk, blend again.
Add protein powder and blue majik powder. Blend once more until all ingredients are well incorporated and a thick, creamy light-blue smoothie remains.
Transfer the smoothie to the pineapple halves (or bowls). Top your aqua smoothie bowls with desiccated coconut, pomegranate seeds, blueberries and star fruit. Serve smoothie bowls immediately.
