How to make a Beautiful Pitaya Bowl

Pitaya is a really interesting fruit. For one, it grows on a cactus! In addition, its nickname is “Dragon Fruit”. Surely this awesome name comes from pitaya’s appearance. After all, it’s covered in spiky leaf-like appendages that look like scales! However, you’ll be glad to know that dragon fruit isn’t fearsome at all. It’s actually quite a softie! So, in this recipe, we’re turning a beautiful Red Dragon Fruit into a super-refreshing pitaya bowl.

INGREDIENTS
Pitaya Bowl

7 ounces / 200 grams frozen red pitaya, roughly chopped
1 frozen banana, roughly chopped
1/2 cup frozen strawberries
1/2 cup coconut water (or juice of choice- apple, cranberry or orange works well!)
Maple syrup or agave nectar, to taste

Toppings

Lots of fresh fruit, such as berries, banana, kiwi, mango, etc.
Granola

INSTRUCTIONS
Place all pitaya bowl ingredients into a high powered blender.
Blend at full speed until the ingredients come together and achieve a smooth texture (you may need to stop blending occasionally to scrape the sides and tamp down the ingredients).
Sweeten to taste with maple syrup or agave nectar.
Scoop into a bowl and top with fresh fruit + granola!

Enjoy your Beautiful Pitaya Bowl immediately!
