You know all those frozen bananas that you have in the freezer? Beaumont Kitchen has an idea for you (that's not banana bread). The newest addition to the Oliver and Bonacini family, located within the Saks Fifth Avenue in CF Sherway Gardens, is known for its West Coast style, laid-back cuisine, from its breakfast to dinner. Try this smoothie bowl for a feel-good start to the day.

2 cups frozen banana
1 cup frozen cherries
1 small handful dates, seeded and softened in the microwave
1 tsp cocoa powder
1/2 cup almond milk
1/2 cup granola
fresh fruit, to garnish

Chill serving bowl in the fridge until cold.

Purée the frozen fruit, dates, cocoa powder and almond milk together. Pour into prepared bowl.

Garnish with fresh fruit of your choice. We use strawberries and mango.
