Extra firm silken tofu is used in this smoothie bowl to provide extra protein and give it a creamy texture, similarly to how you might use yogurt. This recipe could be re-made so many different ways - you can swap out the fruits and the toppings! I think you could also get away with hiding more veggies in it than I did in this one. It’s definitely perfect for breakfast and would also be a great post-workout snack!

Additional Information:
- Could easily be made gluten-free and/or oil-free depending on what kind of granola/toppings you use
Ingredients
Smoothie
- Baby spinach – I like to use fresh spinach, but you could also use frozen.
- Extra Firm Silken Tofu – make sure you’re using silken tofu for this recipe. Using normal tofu (firm/extra firm) will not turn out right. Silken tofu can be found at most grocery stores and can also be purchased online. I like the brand Mori-Nu and usually buy their Extra Firm Silken Tofu.
- Frozen blueberries – I use frozen blueberries for this. You could also use fresh!
- Vanilla protein powder – I use either Orgain or Earth Chimp vanilla. Feel free to use your favorite protein powder!
- Soy milk – I always use soy milk, because it has the best macros of the palnt-based milk options. You can use your favorite non-dairy milk though and it won’t change much!
Toppings I used
- Granola – I used store-bought granola. You can also make homemade granola if you have time.
- Banana – I use a fresh banana for this, but you can use other fruits as well.
- Peanut butter – I used PBFit for extra protein. Any peanut butter will work though!
Directions
- Blend all of the ingredients listed under the smoothie section in a high-powered blender. It’s kind of a thick smoothie so you may need a few spatula interventions to fully blend it.
- Add your favorite toppings! I listed the toppings I added; this is what the calorie/macro information is based on. You can definitely change up the toppings though!
