I am in love with Jamba Juice bowls. I swear I could eat there every day. Unfortunately, they don't have a location where I live. (What the heck?!) It is so hot here I crave one once a day...at least.
We have a really yummy copycat recipe of Jamba's Caribbean Passion smoothie, and I'm loving this easy green smoothie lately too, but when I'm using it as a meal replacement I just really love Jamba's bowls.
Chunky Strawberry Bowl
One of my favorite smoothies to get there is the chunky strawberry bowl. It is so delicious, and filling. I have been craving it all the time for breakfast, lunch or a healthy treat.
So, this week I made it my mission to make my own version, and it is dang good, if I do say so myself! I love the unexpected marriage of strawberries and peanut butter. I feel like that extra protein gives me the burst I need in the mornings to make it through these hot summer days.
Jamba's Chunky Strawberry Bowl Ingredients
- Oats

All you do is put everything in a blender (we LOVE our Blendtec, totally worth that price tag) and once blended pour into a bowl. Then top with fresh fruit and granola.
Here is what it looks like after blended, if you prefer to eat this out of a cup that is totally fine too of course, but I like eating mine in a bowl like they serve at Jamba Juice.
Pro Smoothie Making Tips:
- Add liquid and yogurt into the blender first, this helps everything blend more smoothly without jamming your blender.
- The less liquid you add the thicker your smoothie will be, but it takes a strong blender to blend with little liquid. If you like your bowl extra thick adjust liquid accordingly.
- If you don't have a frozen banana ready, you can substitute a fresh banana and a few ice cubes.
- For a nice consistency, you will need to use a powerful blender. We love our Blendtec. This KitchenAid Blender is great too and it comes in so many fun colors.

I love everything about this smoothie, but here are two of my favorite things: number one, it is so thick and delicious. Second, no added sugar.
Woo hoo for delicious healthfulness.
