- Greek yogurt is optional but adds protein and creaminess.
- Adjust sweetness with honey or maple syrup based on your taste preferences.
- Try kale instead of spinach for a different green flavor profile.
- Add a handful of ice cubes if you prefer a colder smoothie bowl.
- Customize toppings with any fresh fruit, nuts, or seeds you like.
