Equipment
- Blender
Ingredients
- 1 cup mango diced, fresh or frozen
- ½ ripe avocado
- 1 ripe banana fresh or frozen
- 1 cup spinach
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed or chia seed
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
- ¾ cup almond milk or any plant based milk
Instructions
- In a blender, combine frozen mango, avocado, banana, spinach, ground flaxseed, almond milk, and lemon juice.
- Blend until smooth and creamy. Pour into glasses, and garnish with mango cubes. Enjoy right away.
Notes
- This smoothie is best enjoyed fresh. If you have leftovers, store them in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
- For a thicker, creamier texture, use frozen mango and/or banana instead of fresh. This also helps keep the smoothie cold without needing ice.
- For busy mornings, prep your ingredients the night before and store them in the fridge. Just blend in the morning.
- Taste your smoothie before serving and adjust the sweetness by adding more banana, a splash of maple syrup, or a few dates if needed.
- For a thinner smoothie, add more liquid. For a thicker smoothie, use less liquid or add more frozen fruit.
