I clearly remember the first time, I heard about this Acai bowl thingy two years ago.
And it was only 3 months ago when I actually learned how to pronounce it. {a,sa’i}
Since then I have tried a lot of Acai bowl in all different variations and in different places. Some at restaurants, cafes or at home. It is such a simple way to get in a lot of vitamins and nutrients already for breakfast. Topped with fresh fruits and Rawnola, this is a bomb bowl filled with all the good things your body and mind is looking for.

Purple Acai Bowl- Thriving on plants!

The ultimate power acai bowl for a great weekend! Fill the bowl with fruits and add all the great foods you love. Many asked where I ahve my Acai from. I usually buy it from Organicburst and you can get it here. Be careful there are a lot of fake products on the market! Better pay a little bit more but then you can be sure that you have a good quality product, that has inside what it promises outside.

I created a lot of recipes with Acai powder amongst many other superfood, plantbased recipes. Check it out—> EBOOK

Some great facts about Acai are:

High ORAC Score. Acai has a high ORAC score of 70,000 (3x higher than goji and 10x higher blueberries). It is a source of polyphenols, the compounds that make it so purple. The darker the colour, the higher its levels of polyphenols.
Our Acai is rich in essential fatty acids omega-3-6 and contains omega-9 oleic acid.
Reduces Total and Non-HDL Cholesterol. Studies have shown supplementation with acai can reduce total and non-HDL cholesterol.

For the basic Acai bowl you need to blend:

2 frozen bananas
1/4 cup coconut milk
1 handful of raspberries
2 capsules of Acai powder (I use the ones from Organicburst, cause they are good quality)
