1 frozen banana, broken into chunks
1 cup stemmed leafy greens, lightly packed
½ cup plain nondairy milk
1 tablespoon nut or seed butter
1 teaspoon chia seeds
1 teaspoon ground flaxseeds or flaxseed meal
1 package (2 ounces) frozen açaí purée, or 1 teaspoon açaí powder
1 teaspoon spirulina or chlorella powder (optional)
½ cup diced or sliced fruit, 1⁄3 cup fresh berries, or 2 tablespoons pomegranate seeds
2 tablespoons whole or diced dried fruit
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped nuts, or 1 tablespoon raw seeds
Put the banana, leafy greens, milk, nut butter, chia seeds, flaxseeds, açaí purée, and optional spirulina powder in a blender and process until smooth. Scrape down the blender jar and process for 15 seconds longer. The mixture should be very thick, with a consistency similar to soft-serve ice cream. Transfer to a bowl and top with the fresh fruit, dried fruit, and nuts.
Serve immediately.
