INGREDIENTS  YOU’LL  NEED

  • Mango-Frozen mango is one of my favorite smoothie ingredients because it blends up to make an incredibly thick, smooth and creamy smoothie. You can also make this smoothie with fresh mango, you’ll need less liquid for a fresh mango smoothie.
  • Banana-Half of a banana adds sweetness to the smoothie, if you make the smoothie with frozen mango, a fresh banana works fine. If you use fresh mango, use frozen banana to thicken the smoothie.
  • Greek yogurt-Plain greek yogurt is one of my favorite smoothie ingredients, it adds protein, flavor and creaminess to smoothie recipes. You can use vanilla yogurt for a sweeter smoothie.
  • Milk-Milk helps the ingredients to blend well. Use your preferred milk or non-dairy substitute, such as almond milk. I usually use unsweetened vanilla almond milk.

HOW TO MAKE A MANGO SMOOTHIE

  • Start by adding all of the ingredients to your blender. Blend until fully combined and smooth.
  • If your blender has a tamper, use it to help the smoothie blend evenly. This is especially important since this smoothie is so thick. If you don’t have a tamper, just stop the blender occasionally and stir with a spoon.
  • Start blending on low speed and then increase the speed as the smoothie starts to come together.
  • For a thick smoothie, start by adding  less liquid and then add more as needed until your desired consistency is reached.
  • Smoothies taste best when served right away after blending.

RECIPE VARIATIONS

  • Dairy-free : Omit the yogurt or use a dairy-free yogurt. Use nondairy milk, juice or coconut water for the liquid. Orange juice is a good choice, since the citrus complements the mango flavor.
  • Strawberry mango smoothie : Add one cup of fresh or frozen strawberries. You will need to add additional liquid if using frozen strawberries.
  • Mango pineapple smoothie : For a tropical smoothie, add one cup of fresh or frozen pineapple. Increase the liquid amount as needed.
