refreshing eats: acai bowls-is there a cooler food in the world than this gem?

 

There not much that can come even remotely near close to what is a refreshing acai bowl after a hard session of training and rolling. The luscious juiciness of cool texture of blended fruits and acai is enough to recharge for hours yet delicious and you can eat it with a piece of mind knowing you are doing something great for your body and the inner foodie soul inside of yourself. Here are surefire steps to an awesome, no let me rephrase-LEGENDARY acai bowl. 
step by step:

1-use a watermelon base for the acai bowl. no soy milk or any of that crap. that stuff dilutes the acai and alters the flavor. seedless watermelon preferred or pick out all the seeds before you use it. blend the watermelon by itself first. this should produce a slighty thicker than liquid texture of watermelon residue. then add the acai.

after blending watermelon alone, you get this

2-you could just add the acai in their and blend it together. this makes an icier texture than the former. 

3-if the blended result is too watery, add a banana or two, maybe three to thicken out the mix to give it a more pasty, smooth texture

4-pour out contents into a large bowl. add strawberries and blueberries

5-scalp out and dice some coconut. this may require some muscle action

6-add other fruits to top if you want. I slice bananas in mine. I like the coconut and add kiwi if I have them. If I do nut have coconut, I use a couple spoons of organic virgin coconut oil. Upon contact, the oil will freeze and make chocolate chip-like textures of layers.

7-Be prepared to share. THis makes a huge serving and can serve about 2-3 people decently

8-Enjoy every spoonful!

This is an excellent recipe. There can be deviations if you do not have certain ingredients. They include:

-replacing the watermelon base with mangos or papaya. The other two fruits create thicker bases and may not need as much bananas blended to create a thicker base.

-If you do not have watermelon, papaya, or mango, use frozen blueberries then add in a bit of cold water to blend as a base. 

-Coconut oil can replace the coconut shredding

Also, the acai brand I use is the Amazon Mania raw acai. Amazon-Mania uses raw unpasteurized acai that is frozen and the quality is noticeable and superior to other brands. Sambazon acai is inferior to this brand as theirs is pasteurized. If you look closely, you will see a slight oil layer on the Amazon-mania after blending. THis makes sense as acai is know to have  a decent amount of mono and polyunsaturated fats. Now go make some!
