While I love a good acai bowl, my waistline does not. As a dietitian, I always like to educate my clients so that they can make informed decisions about what to eat. The average acai bowl has nearly 1,000 calories and is very high in carbs. It has little fiber and can leave you feeling hungry shortly thereafter. I don’t know about you, but I’d prefer not consume half my calories and carbs for the day in just one meal. Therefore, I created a high fiber, low calorie/carb acai bowl that will keep you full for hours. The best part is that it is still flavorful and delicious.

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 6 oz. plain Greek yogurt

  • 3/4 cup sliced fruit (passion fruit, kiwi, banana, strawberries are my personal favorites)

  • 1/3 cup Smart Bran/Bran Buds/Fiber One cereal

  • 2 Tbsp. “low carb” granola

  • 2 Tbsp. chocolate PB2 or regular PB2

  • 1 Tbsp. unsweetened toasted coconut

  • 1 Tbsp. Lily’s chocolate chips

Directions

Prepare the Acai Bowl

1.

Pour Greek yogurt into a bowl.

2.

Layer fruit in a pattern all around (make it pretty because looks matter), leaving a small corner.

3.

Pour the fiber cereal and granola in a small corner.

4.

Sprinkle toppings of choice (PB2, coconut, chocolate chips).

5.

Mix and enjoy or just dig in without mixing for the full effect.

Variation:

You can also freeze the yogurt for 2 hours to make it more like a froyo.
