Acai smoothie bowls in particular have grown in popularity. While it sounds fancy, acai berry bowls are typically just smoothie bowls loaded with berries and topped with healthy ingredients like granola and seeds - just like this recipe.
Personally, I love starting my day with a breakfast smoothie bowl because it means I've already gotten one serving of fruit and probably a superfood or two in me before I even leave the house.
I tend to make my morning smoothie bowl with whatever is on hand but this Chocolate Raspberry Smoothie Bowl is one of my personal favorites.
If you're not a fan of raspberries, you can easily swap them and turn this into a strawberry smoothie bowl or add some bananas for a banana smoothie bowl, though I would still add some berries as well.
I encourage you to get creative with this chocolate smoothie bowl until it's loaded with your favorite flavors and ingredients!

How To Make A Thick Smoothie Bowl
For a thick smoothie bowl, it's important to use frozen fruit and as little liquid as possible. For this berry smoothie bowl, make sure to leave the raspberries in the freezer for at least an hour before preparing your smoothie bowl to achieve a thicker consistency.
Cacao vs Cocoa
To make this a healthy chocolate smoothie, it is imperative that you use cacao and not cocoa. Cacao is made from cacao beans that have not been roasted and carry many health benefits, while cocoa is made from roasted beans and is the sugary powder used in candy bars.
Cacao benefits may include lower blood pressure, reduced inflammation, reduced diabetes and heart disease risks, and may improve depression. All of that and you still get the delicious taste of chocolate!
Cacao powder benefits are the same as cacao benefits, so you get all of those benefits in this yummy chocolate smoothie bowl!
Top with cacao nibs for extra benefits.

Notes
Note: Make sure to leave the raspberries in the freezer for at least an hour before preparing your smoothie bowl to achieve a thicker consistency. If you don’t have time to freeze the raspberries, add three ice cubes instead.
You can change up this smoothie recipe easily by changing up the fruit that you add as well. While blueberries and raspberries are great, don't forget that bananas are good additions, too.
You're going to want to make this fresh so enjoy the most flavor and taste. Don't attempt to freeze your smoothie bowl for later as that will leave it with a less than desirable texture.
If you don't have any frozen fruit to add, you can use fresh fruit and actually fresh the fresh fruit to get that same outcome. This will just require you to plan ahead a bit more to get the fruit frozen and ready to enjoy.
This is also a simple recipe to make a smoothie recipe that you can drink from a cup as well. Just blend up everything well and add a bit more milk to more it a thinner consistency to use.
