Ingredients

  • 4 grapefruit
  • 1 large orange
  • 1 large blood orange
  • 2 frozen bananas
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk
  • Cashew pieces, granola, coconut flakes, goji berries, bee pollen, chia seeds, banana slices, flowers, orange slices, etc for topping

Instructions

To make the grapefruit bowl:

  • First, make the grapefruit “bowls”. Slice the top third (or fourth, depending on the size) off each grapefruit (feel free to snack on the tops or save them for garnishes).
  • Run a paring knife around the edge, loosening the fruit. Then, use a serrated spoon/grapefruit spoon to gently remove the fruit and juice.
  • Continue scraping out the insides until most of the fruit is removed (they don’t need to be perfectly cleaned out), give the “shells” a quick rinse under warm water and then pat them dry with a paper towel.
  • You will need the fruit and juice of one grapefruit for the smoothie recipe, but the rest can be saved for snacking or other recipes.

To make citrus smoothie:

  • To make the smoothie, add the fruit and juice of one grapefruit to a blender, along with the oranges, bananas and coconut milk.
  • Blend on high until smooth, about 50-60 seconds. If the smoothie is too thick, add more coconut milk or grapefruit juice. If the smoothie is too thin, add more frozen bananas.
  • Immediately pour the smoothie into the grapefruit bowls. Jazz them up with the toppings of your choosing!
