FAQs
Can I use fresh dragon fruit instead of frozen?
Yes, but using fresh dragon fruit may result in a thinner smoothie. To thicken, add a few ice cubes or more frozen banana.
Is this smoothie bowl suitable for a vegan diet?
You can make it vegan by replacing Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative and ensuring granola is vegan-friendly.
