Chia Seed Berry Coconut Smoothie Bowl

To some extent, in one way or the other, we are all incoherent. I think it’s part of human nature: we say one thing and end up doing another.
A few everyday examples include: complaining about living in a mess but watching TV instead of doing chores, extolling the health benefits of biking to work then smoking a pack a day, parking the car as close as possible to the gym before going to a cardio class, wearing sports clothes but never exercising, being concerned about your health but eating a diet of junk food, etc. I could go on forever and ever and ever

As for myself, I am no different than the rest of the world.
I am incoherent and I blabbidy blih blah bleh at everything.
For instance, six months ago I was making fun of this “food in a bowl” trend, saying that “A strawberry breakfast bowl, is a strawberry smoothie served in a bowl.”
Yet here I am today presenting you with a smoothie bowl. Boom!
What can I say? I am an incoherent sinner.
But let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone.

Anyways, it seems that smoothie bowls are all over my life and I cannot be stopped. Call me incoherent if you like.
The base of this Chia Seed Berry Coconut Smoothie Bowl is my current obsession – a combo of coconut milk, berries, bananas, and pomegranate juice.
Basically it’s a whole slew of super foods blended until it’s bright pink. So pink it looks like the river in candy kingdom.
Then, then it’s topped with chia seeds, shredded coconut, and even more berries.
It’s a perfect combination of flavors: fruity, tangy, bright, vibrant, delicious, and uber healthy (which is the only thing that really matters, right?)
