Green mango-banana vegan smoothie
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Peel and dice the mango into small chunks.
- Peel and slice the banana.
- Wash the kale thoroughly and chop it into smaller pieces to make it easier to blend.
- Ensure your blender is clean and securely assembled.
- Start by adding the 1.5 cups of diced mango and the sliced banana into the blender.
- Add the 2 cups of chopped kale on top of the fruit.
4. Add Liquids:
- Pour in the 1/2 cup of almond milk.
- Add the 1/2 cup of water. These liquids will help blend the ingredients smoothly.
- Secure the lid on the blender.
- Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This should take about 1-2 minutes. If needed, pause blending to scrape down the sides and ensure all chunks are thoroughly blended.
- If the smoothie is too thick, you can add a bit more water or almond milk and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
- Pour the smoothie into glasses.
- Optionally, you can garnish with a slice of mango or banana on the rim of the glass, or add a sprinkle of chia seeds for extra texture and nutrients.
- Serve immediately while cold and refreshing.
Tips:
- Use frozen banana and mango for a thicker, creamier texture.
- Feel free to add a tablespoon of chia seeds or flax seeds for an extra nutritional boost.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding a pitted date or a teaspoon of maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter smoothie.
- Substitute almond milk with any other plant-based milk of your choice, such as coconut milk or oat milk.
- Blend the harder ingredients like kale first with the liquid to ensure a smoother consistency.
