I love when people make me smoothies (and dinner and cocktails and cheese plates and … you get the idea.) But I’ve always shied away from DIY smoothies because a) the effort and b) I didn’t know how to make them actually healthy/filling/tasty. 

Enter Emma Knight, co-founder of Greenhouse Juice Co. She popped by the ELLE Canada office to teach me about all the good stuff that needs to go in these beverages. We made a delish Dark Cherry Berry Smoothie Bowl. (For the uninitiated, smoothie bowls are more viscous than regular smoothies; you eat them with a spoon so it tricks your brain into making you feel fuller.)

The recipe, which I will be attempting at home this weekend like a good student, is from a new book of plant-based meals, The Greenhouse Cookbook. Here’s the Facebook Live with Emma and the full recipe below.
