We’ve always loved creating beautiful brunches on our days off, but the trend towards working from home means that some of us now have a little extra time in our morning routine to ensure breakfast feeds our eyes as well as our body.

Take your cue from this rainbow of healthy (and gorgeous) recipes that combine your favourite superfood ingredients in one bountiful bowl. Here are some amazing creations featuring Australian macadamias.

Blue spirulina smoothie bowl

This bright smoothie bowl uses blue spirulina to achieve this striking colour. The bananas provide sweetness and macadamia milk smooths out the mix as well as adding the nourishing goodness of macadamias.

Method

Place all ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth. Add mixture to serving bowl and decorate with toppings such as macadamias, dried figs and frozen berries.
