Having you been indulging in too many sweet and treats during the holiday season? I definitely have! When the New Year comes, I always try to give my body a break by drinking lots of water and herbal tea, and by enjoying as many smoothie bowls as my heart desires. Today’s Pomegranate Berry Smoothie Bowl is one of my current favorites. It’s the perfect breakfast or post-workout snack to boost your energy levels and get fit fast!

JULIE’S TIPS & TRICKS:
- This pomegranate berry smoothie will stay fresh for up to 2 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Fresh pomegranate seeds are really high in fiber so they are great to boost your digestion.
