Ocean Spirulina Smoothie Bowl

Vegan │ Gluten Free │ Dairy Free │ Nut Free

This smoothie bowl is inspired by the ocean and serves as a great reminder to keep our oceans plastic free this July.

Aside from looking amazing, this bowl gets its cool colour from blue spirulina which is rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and carotenoids.

All you need to make this beautiful Blue Smoothie Bowl is a high speed blender and a handful of delicious ingredients.
