Just letting you know, this Pumpkin Acai Bowl recipe was originally published September 2015. I retested, rephotographed and updated the content for you. Hope you enjoy it!

Pumpkin this and pumpkin that everywhere. I swear every year pumpkin season starts earlier and earlier. I don’t know about you, but I’m not quite ready for pumpkin season. Something about 100 degrees and pumpkin doesn’t mix well. Let me just sweat over here as I down a PSL. No thank you.

What I can get down with is a cool Pumpkin Acai Bowl! A fall seasoned treat that gives will give you your pumpkin fix without making you sweat. It’s been my go to treat these last weeks as I envy everyone else in cooler weather.

Okay, so I know this combo sounds strange, but trust me it’s delicious. Much more delicious and balanced than other smoothie bowls and here’s why.

• Acai – High in antioxidants and protein. Bet you didn’t know that! Also, adds a unique, sweet flavor.
• Greek yogurt – adds a creamy texture and protein {sub coconut yogurt for a Paleo or dairy-free version}.
• Pumpkin – High in fiber, potassium and Vitamin C. 

One of the reasons I love pumpkin season is because it’s so good for you and you can sneak it into so many things. Protein balls, cookies, brownies, pancakes, muffins, donuts and acai smoothie bowls! It’s such a versatile ingredient that’s lower in carbs. It’s high in fiber so the blood sugar effect is slower than eating a bag of candy.
