Dragonfruit Smoothie Bowl

If you aren’t familiar with dragonfruit or pitaya it is part of the cactus family. It has a mild flavor similar to a kiwi. The fruit usually comes in two colors: a white with black seeds or a deep magenta hue. That deep magenta tone makes my heart swoon.

Smoothie bowls are the perfect warm weather breakfast. They will instantly cool you down while nourishing you with natures nutrients. I love, love the natural color from the dragonfruit. The recipe is very flexible so feel free to substitute frozen mango or pineapple if you can’t get your hands on jackfruit at the moment.
