Mango Smoothie
Nov 1st 2011, 10:09

The tart and sweet taste of mango works well in smoothie recipes. As always, how much seasoning to add comes down to individual taste - feel free to vary the amount of honey and/or lime juice as desired. Also, orange juice generally has a sweeter taste than mango juice, so if you're just using orange juice you may want to adjust accordingly. (The same goes if you're replacing the plain yogurt with a vanilla yogurt).

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium banana, peeled and sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups diced mango fruit (you'll need 2 mangoes and may have some fruit leftover)
  • 3/4 cup fat-free plain yogurt
  • 1/4 cup mango juice
  • 1/4 cup orange juice (can leave out the mango juice and use 1/2 cup orange juice instead)
  • 1 tablespoon honey, or to taste
  • 2 - 3 teaspoons lime juice
  • 2 - 3 ice cubes, optional

Preparation:

Place the sliced banana and the diced mango on a baking sheet and freeze for about 15 minutes (this helps make the smoothie thicker).

Add the banana, mango and yogurt and process. Add the fruit juice and process again.

Add the honey, lime juice and ice cubes (If you like, add the honey and lime juice 1 teaspoon at a time, blend and then add more as desired).
Pour into drinking glasses and serve immediately or chill until ready to serve. Feel free to garnish with leftover mango fruit.
