Blackberry Tofu Smoothie Bowl
This vibrant smoothie bowl is a powerhouse of plant-based protein and antioxidant-rich goodness, perfect for breakfast or a nourishing snack.
Silken tofu forms the creamy, protein-packed base, providing all nine essential amino acids to support muscle repair, hormone balance, and steady energy.
Blackberries are the true stars here, bursting with anthocyanins, potent antioxidants that help fight oxidative stress, support brain health, and slow down signs of ageing by protecting cells from damage.
Chia and flaxseeds add extra staying power, supplying omega-3 fatty acids, fibre, and minerals that help support heart and gut health.
The banana lends natural sweetness and potassium, while the topping of walnuts and coconut adds crunch, healthy fats, and even more antioxidants.
Together, these ingredients create a beautifully balanced smoothie that’s as nourishing as it is delicious, a true celebration of food as medicine.
