More thoughts on Making a Strawberry Smoothie Bowl
Dairy Allergies: You can swap the Greek yogurt for your favorite yogurt alternative. Depending on the yogurt alternative you use, it may change the consistency, but will be equally delicious.
Vanilla Yogurt: If you use vanilla flavored yogurt or a yogurt alternative, mix the vanilla yogurt with the frozen strawberries before adding the honey and vanilla extract. You may want to eliminate those ingredients. Taste test and decide.
Nut Allergies: Eliminate the walnuts and use a nut-free granola cereal. Replace the nut butter with your favorite alternative.
