These Smoothie bowls can be anything you want them to be.  Packed with nutrition of your choice.

While I can't provide specific nutrition facts for the recipe without knowing the exact quantities and brands of ingredients used, I can give you a general idea of the nutritional benefits of the ingredients in the raw vegan spirulina bowl:

1. Bananas: Bananas are a great source of potassium, vitamin C, dietary fiber, and provide natural sweetness to the bowl.

2. Pineapple: Pineapple is rich in vitamin C, manganese, and bromelain, an enzyme that aids digestion.

3. Blueberries: Blueberries are packed with antioxidants, fiber, and vitamins C and K. They are also known for their anti-inflammatory properties.

4. Spirulina: Spirulina is a nutrient-dense algae that is high in protein, vitamins (such as B vitamins), minerals (such as iron and magnesium), and antioxidants. It is also a source of chlorophyll, which gives it its vibrant green color.

5. Coconut Water: Coconut water is a hydrating liquid that contains electrolytes, such as potassium, and is a good source of vitamin C.

6. Toppings: The toppings you choose can add additional nutrients to your bowl. For example, kiwi is rich in vitamin C and fiber, blueberries are packed with antioxidants, shredded coconut provides healthy fats, and chia seeds are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids and fiber.

Remember that the specific nutritional content of your bowl will depend on the quantities and brands of ingredients used. If you have specific dietary concerns or are tracking your nutrient intake, it's best to consult with a registered dietitian or use a nutrition calculator to get accurate information.

Enjoy your raw vegan spirulina bowl and its potential nutritional benefits!
