Every year at this time, our intentions are noble, pure—and always the same: Eat healthier, and lose weight. We know that we should be whirling together a bright-green smoothie every morning, but we just can’t. Allow us to present a first step, a halfway house on the journey to health, called the Açai (ah-sah-EE) Bowl, a combination of blueberry, strawberry, banana, açai berries, dates, almond milk, and almond butter. Fold in house-made granola (with grains, cacao nibs, bee pollen, and chia), and you’re on the road to redemption. Source Juicery in Edwardsville can take you the rest of the way.
