Creamy coconut yoghurt blended with wild blueberries and banana makes up this lovely purple smoothie bowl with fluffy buckwheat groats topped with a mix of nuts and seeds and some refreshing mint.  If you have some buckwheat pre-prepared in your fridge, then this breakfast will take just a few minutes to put together.

  • 1 large, ripe banana
  • 1.5 cups frozen blueberries

  • Place all of the prepared ingredients into bowls and top with the nuts, seeds and mint leaves, if using. Serve.
