Galaxy smoothie bowl is one of my favourite! It is so Sexy and Mysterious in a way... I liked playing around with what can I decorate it with to make it look like outer space..
It is so easy to make the base with charcoal, and because it colour everything black I could use some mangos too, too ease up the heaviness of only bananas - without harming the colour!
I also loved using colourful yogurt as my galactic pink and blue shades!
It is so easy to make.. literally only using 2 little bowls or cups to mix yogurt with your favourite superfood colour, then drizzle it on top of your smoothie base and mix with a toothpick! It would look like Magic!
I also like using charcoal every now and then for detox, or when my digestive system is turning its back on my... But I wouldn't use it on a regular basis since its a strong detoxifying superfood and our bodies wont be happy to receive it on the reg..
So pick your Charcoal powder and lets begin!
