Notes
*You can freeze your own watermelon or purchase frozen watermelon in stores like Whole Foods. To freeze your own, dice watermelon into 1/2" cubes and transfer to a sheet pan, spreading out the cubes in an even layer. Freeze for 2-3 hours (until frozen solid), then transfer to a freezer bag/container until ready to use.
Smoothie instructions: To make this into a smoothie, add an additional 1/4-1/2 cup coconut milk or another liquid of choice.
Go easy on the liquids: There's a fine line between a creamy, thick smoothie bowl and a watery one that doesn't hold any toppings. It's best to stick to as little liquid as possible, only adding it in when you need something to help blend.
For best results, let the frozen fruit thaw at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before blending. You can also microwave the fruit for 30 seconds for a quicker option.
Don't add ice: Smoothie bowl not thick enough? Instead of adding ice (which will make your bowl grainy and watered down), add in another handful of frozen strawberries and/or raspberries.
