Yes, I have been on a matcha kick lately. Oh, and a smoothie bowl kick, too, I suppose.
I would say that I make some form of a smoothie or acai bowl about 3-4x a week for breakfast. I try not to overdo it—because, yes, lots of sugar—but they’re just so delicious. Especially in this hot, hot summer we’re having.
What I like most about this Matcha Smoothie Bowl is that it doubles as both a satisfying, delicious breakfast and a great morning pick-me-up. Matcha gives that nice boost of energy perfect for starting your day. I mean, a caffeinated breakfast I can eat? Yes, please.
I love matcha for so many reasons, and I write about this glorious green tea often (see: here and here).
Matcha is pretty miraculous for several reasons. Let’s cover some below.
What are the health benefits of matcha?
- Matcha is loaded with cancer-fighting antioxidants like the powerful compound EGCG.
- Matcha is packed with vitamins and minerals including vitamin C, vitamin A, selenium, zinc, and magnesium.
- Matcha has been proven to enhance overall brain function, attention, and memory.
- Matcha contains L-theanine, which raises serotonin, GABA, and dopamine levels. This can benefit sleep quality, help you relax, and relieve anxiety. Check, check, check.
- Matcha gives what is described as a clean, jitter-free buzz compared to coffee.
- Matcha boosts the metabolism and helps in the maintenance of a healthy weight.
