Summer is (almost!) here, which means; can you guess it? .. SMOOTHIE-BOWLS! Yes!<\/p>\n

And you know what else is a\u00a0YES?!\u00a0<\/strong>Same-sex marriage in Australia as of today. Today was a DAMN good day for humankind!<\/p>\n

I’ve been a bit slack with my recipe creations<\/a> (I’m so sorry, as I know you love the simplicity of what I normally create), but for a little while I lost my creative mojo, but now I’m back again. And I promise I won’t go away again. Well, at least for now – expect to see a lot more fun, easy and healthy recipes coming up in the next little while.<\/p>\n

For today, I’ve created a\u00a0pink pitaya\u00a0<\/strong>protein bowl\u00a0<\/strong>for you all. Pink pitaya is also known as ‘dragonfruit’, and is rich in\u00a0Vitamin C, Antioxidants, good fatty acids\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0B Vitamins\u00a0<\/strong>as well as\u00a0carotene\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0protein.\u00a0<\/strong>Superfood? I think, YES!<\/p>\n

Have this bowl for breakfast or even just have it as a drink (without the toppings) for an in-between-meal snack. It works both ways. If you want to keep it lighter, leave out the protein.<\/p>\n

If you’re wondering where to get the\u00a0Pink Pitaya<\/strong>\u00a0from?\u00a0<\/strong>This Organic one<\/a> is from\u00a0THR1VE<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>which you can order with their home-delivery meals.<\/p>\n
