Smoothie In A Bowl
SIAB = Smoothie In A Bowl!
I never liked smoothies very much until I started serving them in a bowl, soup style! Eating a smoothie with a spoon is so much more fun than drinking it in a glass – when it disappears in 1 minute flat in my house!
Additionally, adding toppings, some of which sink to the bottom, make the eating process more exciting. Chewing helps me feel satisfied, so I love adding that dimension to smoothies.
One variation on the smoothie in a bowl is the Dough Boy Smoothie. This is where you soak the oats overnight in milk + yogurt [aka overnight oats] and then blend them together in the morning – which creates an incredible doughy taste!

All of these look so delicious! I am dying to try one with coconut butter, it looks fabulous. Yum!
I think I may just go make a Kerf inspired SIAB. PB and banana chocolate here I come!!
You are SOOOOO creative and unique, miss Kath! Keep it up, that’s why we all love ya
Love bowl-ed smoothies. Slurping them down with a straw them would be way too fast, boring, and unsatisfying. I like putting lots of whole-grain cereal (Cascadian Farm raisin bran, multi-grain squares) or ripped up homemade muffins (with mucho chocolate chips and raisins!) in mine. Mmm. Cheers to drinking your greens!
Can you remember if there are any in here that don’t use bananas? I can’t tell just from the photos… stupid expensive Australian bananas…
YUM!!!
Where do you get your spoons? I love the varieties that you show. I have to try your recipes!
Most of my long antique spoons are from my grandmother’s collection
I need to start doing this. I love to whip up a quick smoothie for the road when I need to get out the door quick, but this is a great idea for weekend mornings when I have more time and don’t want hot oatmeal
