When I moved to California, I saw places everywhere selling Acai Bowls. So I finally tried one and understood why people love them so much.
Great combination of flavors and textures, so I decided to come up with my own version that is even healthier without any added sugar (only what is naturally found in berries).
The berries are rich in antioxidants, which protect against heart disease, cancer and autoimmune disease and the nuts are an excellent source of zinc and fiber. You can make this using other berries if you want a different flavor.
