Ingredients

  • ½ cup (120 ml) soy milk
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) vanilla almond yogurt
  • ½ cup (75 g) cooked sweet potato
  • ¼ cup (35 g) cashews
  • 1 Tablespoon chia seed
  • 1 Tablespoon hemp seeds
  • 2 ½ cups (375 g) frozen banana

Directions

  1. Place all ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
  2. Run the Smoothie Bowl Program or start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed. Blend for 40-50 seconds, using the tamper to push ingredients toward the blades.
  3. Nutrition Note:This bowl is a nutrient powerhouse.  The sweet potato provides fiber, vitamins A and C, and antioxidants. Soy milk and almond yogurt offer plant-based protein and calcium, while cashews add healthy fats and magnesium. Chia and hemp seeds contribute omega-3 fat and even more plant protein.  Top with granola, more fresh fruit and you have yourself a balanced and satisfying meal.

Chef's Notes

  • Chopped cashews, homemade granola, fresh or dried fruit, hemp seeds, and chia seeds all make great toppings.Loaded with fiber, antioxidants, and minerals— make sure to leave the sweet potato skins on. Don't worry the Vitamix will handle it!
