Notes

You want coconut milk from a can (learn the types of coconut milk) because it adds a rich, dairy-free texture. 
Make it paleo: You’d either need a paleo-approved protein powder or you can use collagen powder for the protein. I’d add in 1-2 dates if you use collagen to balance out the sweetener a bit.
Frozen bananas are what help make this smoothie bowl creamy. Fresh banana will work but it won’t be as thick.
Depending on your blender, you may need a splash of almond milk or a bit more coffee. Try not to add too much though or it’ll be a pretty runny texture.
Your coffee doesn’t have to be fully chilled, though it will help, it does have to at least be lukewarm.
The protein powder you use will alter the taste and texture of the smoothie:
  • Beef protein powder: My personal favorite. If you use Equip protein, the smoothie will be sweeter but thicker. If you use Paleo Pro Protein, the smoothie is as close to natural as it gets. Code "mamabear" on both will save you some money.
  • Vegan protein powder: If you're using a pea-based protein powder, the smoothie will have a thicker texture, and if using a fermented protein, you'll probably have to add extra liquid. Vegan proteins aren't always sweet, so adjust the turmeric shake as needed.
  • Egg white protein powder: This will froth your smoothie up a lot.
