If you’re on Pinterest or Instagram, by now you have seen those beautiful smoothie bowls! Some are filled to the brim with colorful fruit, others have intricate designs, while others are simple but drool-worthy. Thanks to the new cookbook, Bold Flavored Vegan Cooking, I finally gave them a shot.

Packed full of plant-based goodness, this smoothie bowl contains two fruits I’m not as familiar with–mango and papaya. After this bowl, I’m ready to experiment with these fruits and others! The toppings are where you can really let your creative juices flow! Chia seeds, unsweetened coconut flakes, hemp seeds, granola, cacao nibs… The options are endless!

Bold Flavored Vegan Mango Papaya Smoothie Bowl

Bold Flavored Vegan Cooking provides plenty of plant-based recipes with a kick. Each recipe states if it’s quick, gluten free, soy free, etc. This cookbook also includes homemade recipes within recipes, which is something I am new to! I typically don’t prepare multiple spice mixes or sauces, but if you do–then you’ll appreciate this cookbook even more.

This smoothie bowl recipe states that you can replace the coconut milk with any unsweetened plain vegan yogurt if you’d like, but I loved the addition of coconut milk! If you find the results are too thick for your liking, thin it out with an unsweetened plain plant-based milk. If you’re wanting a thicker consistency, which I do, use frozen mango and papaya! I would recommend doing this, as the canned coconut milk gives you a super light and airy texture once blended with the fruit.

    This looks delicious. I never know what to do with mangoes other than just eating them plain! Which is totally fantastic still, but I’m sure mangoes are great in dishes like this haha. Thanks for the recipe!
