Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Slice your banana into smaller pieces for easier blending.
- If your mango is not already diced, peel and chop it into small chunks.
- Using measuring cups and spoons, measure out the almond milk, whey protein powder, banana, mango, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the 1/2 cup of almond milk into the blender.

- Secure the lid on the blender.
- Blend the ingredients on a medium to high setting until smooth. This may take about 30-60 seconds, depending on your blender's power.
- Stop the blender and check the consistency of your smoothie.
- If it's too thick for your liking, you can add a splash more almond milk and blend again until you reach the desired consistency.
- If the smoothie is too thin, consider adding a few ice cubes and blending again to thicken it up.
- Once the smoothie is smooth and well-mixed, pour it into your favorite glass.
- Optionally, you can garnish with a slice of banana or a few mango pieces on top for a decorative touch.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, nutritious Mango Banana Protein Smoothie!
Tips:
- Use frozen mango and banana for a thicker and colder smoothie without needing additional ice.
- For a vegan option, substitute the whey protein powder with a plant-based protein powder of your choice.
- Add a handful of spinach for an extra serving of greens without compromising the taste.
- If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, consider adding a small amount of honey or agave syrup.
