Description
This blueberry mango smoothie is packed with tart blueberries, juicy mango, baby spinach, and almond milk. I like to add scoop of plant-based vanilla protein powder to boost the protein content and make this a healthy and satisfying grab-and-go breakfast meal.
Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 cup milk (I use unsweetened almond milk)
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 1/2 cup frozen blueberries (I use wild blueberries)
- 1/2 cup frozen mango
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (I use plant-based protein powder)
Optional Mix-Ins
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds, hemp seeds, or ground flaxseeds
- 1 teaspoon spirulina or barely grass juice powder
- 1 tablespoon honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar
- 1 Medjool date, pit removed
- Granola, for garnish
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a high-powdered blender in this order: milk, spinach, protein powder, blueberries, and mango.
- Blend until creamy and smooth, adding more milk as needed.
- Serve immediately and enjoy. Tastes best when fresh.
Notes
- Keep it vegan by using dairy-free milk and plant-based protein powder.
- If using fresh fruit, you’ll need to add 4-5 ice cubes to make the smoothie cold.
- If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, you can add 1 tablespoon of honey, maple syrup, agave nectar, or 1 Medjool date.
- Nutrition information is a rough estimate based on using unsweetened almond milk and plant-based protein powder that has 30 grams of protein.
