01 -

It feels like dessert but fuels you with fiber, antioxidants, and energy that lasts past noon.
You can prep the base the night before and blend it in under two minutes when you're half awake.
The crunch of granola against the creamy smoothie is oddly satisfying, like eating cereal backwards.

02 -

If your blender struggles, add the liquid first, then the frozen fruit—it helps the blades catch.
Don't skip the chia seeds, they thicken the bowl as you eat and keep you full longer than you'd expect.
Use frozen berries, not fresh, or your bowl will be too thin and you'll just have a sad purple puddle.

03 -

Use a wide, shallow bowl instead of a deep one—it makes the toppings easier to scoop with every bite.
If your blender is weak, let the frozen fruit sit out for five minutes before blending so it doesn't burn out the motor.
Drizzle a little nut butter on top right before serving for richness that melts into the smoothie as you eat.
