These have been my breakfast of late...............Homemade Acai Bowl.



I first tried these a local cafe that I used to frequent on weekends before work. It was all about a moment of bliss before spending the day answering the same questions about lemon trees and why xyz wasn't growing, newsflash, plants need to be watered more than once a fortnight. Anyway, I would drive down in my shiny red Mustang nice and early, park it out front, then enjoy a strong coffee (or two) and something light to eat. These Acai bowls were on the menu, then disappeared, maybe I was the only one ordering them. All this stopped when Covid lockdowns hit and I fell into a new hobbit..............sleeping longer.

And before you all attack me for my supposed hippie super food diet, I just like the taste, sweet but not overly so, a little tang from the banana. And they are easy to make, all you need is a blender.

1+ Handful of Acai Cubes (Frozen)
1 Handful of Blueberries (Frozen)
1 Medium Banana (Fresh, Frozen is doesn't blend well)
200ml Milk of choice (Almond is best, but I've been using full fat dairy)

Cram it all in a blender, banana first, blitz till smooth. Then top with fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, coconut to top. Happiness in a bowl.

Made greens and use the fat and tallow I skimed from hamhocks to make the broth as a glaze for ham . Came out delicious on this carver.

Greens, brussel sprouts and mash patatoes for sides
