Equipment
- high-powered blender
- Tall glass
Ingredients
Frozen mango chunks
- 1 cup frozen mango chunks
Plain Greek yogurt
- 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
Protein powder
- 1 scoop protein powder
100% orange juice
- 1/2 cup 100% orange juice
Optional boosters (chia seeds, hemp seeds, or flaxseed)
- 1-2 tablespoons chia seeds, hemp seeds, or flaxseed optional
Instructions
Preparation
- Add all ingredients to the blender, starting with the orange juice.
Blending
- Blend on low speed first, then increase to high speed and blend until smooth, about 45-60 seconds.
Adjust Consistency
- Check thickness and add more orange juice if needed, blending again for 15-20 seconds.
Serve
- Taste and pour into a glass, adding honey if sweeter flavor is desired. Drink immediately.
Notes
Use frozen mango for a thick texture; freeze fresh mango if needed. Vanilla or unflavored protein powders work best. Optional boosters add nutrition without changing flavor much. Start blending with liquid at the bottom. Store smoothie in the fridge for up to 24 hours and re-blend if separated.
