I recently just got back from an incredible holiday in Bali. It was full of places offering delicious, healthy food and zen vibes so I definitely felt in my element out there.
Every morning consisted of beautifully decorated and delicious smoothie bowls, refreshing juices and amazing coffee! Followed by more smoothies for lunch and a hearty grain bowl for dinner (not forgetting some form of raw cake for pud!). Whilst out there, I became obsessed with pink dragon fruit bowls. Not only are they so pretty and healthy but most importantly, tasted delicious.
There was one restaurant my sister and I fell in love with when visiting Gili Air, called Pachamama. We ate there every morning and evening because everything on the menu was just so delicious (more to come on other Bali restaurants in a Bali blog post).
We tried one smoothie out there which was honestly the most delicious thing I've put in my mouth. It was called 'Nutty Dragon' and the flavours were insane. We ordered one everyday and both said we wanted to try and recreate it when we got back to the UK. To do this, I actually bought a couple of pink dragon fruits out there and brought them home with me in my suitcase. I then chopped them up and froze them.
If you can't find a pink dragon fruit in the UK / online, you can purchase 'pitaya' powder. Pitaya is essentially pink dragon fruit made into a powder and is still full of all the same health benefits. It also creates a beautiful pink barbie bowl, just like this one.
Ingredients:
1/2 pink dragon fruit or 2 tbsp. pitaya powder
2 medjool dates
1 banana
1 heaped tbsp. of peanut butter
100ml almond milk
pinch of salt
Topping:
Granola - for my homemade granola recipe click here.

Transfer into a bowl or glass and sprinkle granola and / or fruit on top.
