Strawberry Pear Goji Smoothie Bowl

As a mom of four young kids and a nutritionist, I love this smoothie because it’s both healthy and delicious! It’s packed with goodness – frozen strawberries provide a burst of fruity flavor and essential vitamins, while the pear adds natural sweetness and extra fiber. And the secret ingredient? Goji berries! They’re loaded with antioxidants and add a delightful twist to the flavor and bright orange color. It’s a winning combination that my kids adore, and I feel good knowing they’re getting a nutritious boost to start their day!
