Refreshing high-protein smoothie bowl that helps balance your blood sugar and support happy hormones
low-carb high-protein
I am a huge fan of green smoothies. I especially like to start my day off with a smoothie. It is simple to make, fresh, and it is a great way to sneak in a ton of nutrients. Let me show you my favorite PCOS-friendly Green Smoothie Bowl recipe that packs in lots of green without tasting like you’re eating grass… you know what I’m talking about.
Why you’ll love this recipe…
You’ll find that this recipe can be easily adapted to whatever produce you have on hand, in the freezer, or prefer. If you struggle getting enough greens and vegetables into your day, this green smoothie bowl is a great way to give yourself a boost.
Of course, you could easily make this into a smoothie as it is. Making it with creamy ingredients like avocado, makes this an easy bowl too. That way you can add extra toppings like our blood-sugar friendly granola, fruits, avocado slices, or nuts and seeds.
Short on time? This recipe can be done in a snap. You can chop your produce in advance and freeze, or purchase frozen ingredients such as spinach, blueberries, and avocado chunks.
Why this recipe benefits your PCOS…
Blood Sugar Support
This smoothie bowl has all of the macronutrients our body craves. The collagen adds a boost of protein, flax seeds and avocado gives us a healthy dose of fats, and the low-glycemic spinach, blueberries, and kiwi really come together to ensure that our blood sugar levels are steady. This means you’ll have more energy to do the things you love!
High Fiber
The Green Smoothie Bowl adds a whopping 14g of fiber to your day- that is almost half of your daily fiber goal! Fiber has been known to help improve insulin resistance, something many people with PCOS struggle with. It is also a great way to support your gut health which can make a positive impact on hormones.
