We've had a few warm days here in Alabama recently & it's put the spring fever in me. Today when I got home from work I decided to sit out in the warm sunshine, with a good book, & a refreshing snack. I had some kale & mango that were reaching their expiration points so I decided to whip something up with both. Perfect treat? A creamy, delicious smoothie!
I keep both fresh & frozen fruits on hand for fast & easy smoothies in the morning before work. I threw in a hodge podge of ingredients for a tropical little retreat from the forecasted 25 degrees for this evening. Enjoy!
Tropical Green Smoothie:
- 2 tbsp flaxseed (for added fiber)
- 1/2 - 1 c of unsweetened coconut milk
- 1/2 of a mango
- 1/2 of a banana
- two large handfuls of kale (for iron)
- 1 c of frozen pineapple
- 2 tbsp of plain Greek yogurt (for protein)
I prefer my smoothies a little thicker texture (similar to a milkshake) rather than liquid-y. If this doesn't met your preference you could leave out the Greek yogurt & add more coconut milk.
