I totally went outside the box with this one. You know how much I love adding vegetables to all of my meals. Usually when I make a smoothie I go for kale or spinach but sometimes it just gets old! I started doing some investigating and I have found people using frozen riced cauliflower, the kind already in the bag from the store.
I won’t lie, I thought they were insane but I’m always willing to give it a try so I put together this smoothie bowl. To my surprise it was actually fantastic! I couldn’t tell the cauliflower was in there at all and it didn’t have that cauliflower smell. The smell is what made me the most nervous! I am very sensitive to smells, especially in the morning so I knew I wouldn’t be able to handle it if the smell was stong.
What I liked the most about adding the cauliflower is that it really helped thicken the smoothie. The texture was perfect!
