Wake up your eyes and your senses with a Cranberry Surprise Superfood Smoothie Bowl. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It provides us with energy and focus to get our day done, so why not make it fun?
Jazz up your morning ritual with a recipe using my two favourite ingredients, cranberries & pumpkin seed butter. Together these two are a power couple! Cranberries give you a boost of antioxidants and vitamins. The pumpkin seed butter is high in iron and protein. They work together to help your body absorb more nutrients. The vitamin C from the cranberries help absorb the iron from the pumpkin seed butter. How awesome is that?

Cranberries are an incredible fruit. We love them for their rich, ruby-redness but their sweet-tartness it’s packed with antioxidants. Cranberries are high in fibre and low in calories. They can improve digestion, reduce bad cholesterol and urinary tract infections.
Pumpkin Seed Butter
Pumpkin seed butter is a great option to keep you energized and full. It adds a whopping 10 grams of protein to your dish and is an excellent source of monosaturated and polyunsaturated fats. Pumpkin seed butter is naturally high in iron, magnesium, zinc and copper. Purchase some here or use my recipe to create your own.
