A gorgeous green smoothie bowl for a fantastically healthy start to the day, decorated with crunchy seeds and fresh fruit.
If you're new to the world of smoothie bowls, you're in for a treat with this green tea power smoothie bowl. Whereas you would sip a regular smoothie through a straw from a glass or a beaker, a smoothie in a bowl tends to be thicker. This allows you to add plenty of lovely toppings. As well as adding flavour, the toppings introduce contrasting textures to the smoothie. This recipe is packed with all sorts of good things, from cucumber and avocado to green tea. It's an antioxidant powerhouse. If you're feeling under the weather, it's an immune-boosting pick-me-up.

2 tbsp natural yogurt
Handful of baby spinach
