In the summer, when we are at the beach, I have this for breakfast several times a week. It hits all the right notes with sweet, creamy, crunchy, tart. You can add whatever you desire to the Açaí puree to make it your own. This is how I like it and just a suggestion.

Tips:

• Most markets in the healthy, organic section carry packets of Açaí puree. You can even buy it at Amazon.

• I always have frozen bananas in my freezer. There is always one left in the bunch that ripened too much for my family to eat. These will make banana bread or this bowl.
