Smoothies, so versatile. Cool, filling, fruity, healthy….impossible to resist. You can have whatever flavor your heart desires, granted that you’re able to locate the desired fruit at your local grocery store. Mango’s are loaded with vitamin C and A as well as Potassium. It is aromatic, juicy and has a fibrous flesh. A Mango can be a little tricky to cut up because of the large flat stone in the middle and so if you need a little advice on how to cut up a mango here is a link with 3 different ways to slice and dice it.
Ingredients:
1/2 banana
2 cups freshly chopped mango (approx 2 mango’s)
1 cup orange juice
3 tablespoon vanilla yogurt
Optional: 1/4 cup uncooked oats (not instant)
Directions:
Place all ingredients in a blender and blend on high-speed until smooth. If you choose to use the optional uncooked oats it may come out a little on the thick side, if you wish to thin it out just add some more orange juice.

Sounds amazing and I love the oats addition. It is like an oatmeal in a shake firm. Great way to con toddlers that they are getting a milkshake when it is oatmeal. I am definately trying this.
Oh how I love a good smoothie. The oats sound like a tasty addition! I’ll definitely whip this one up for my kids.
Thanks for stopping by. It’s really great to meet you and I look forward to seeing what else you cook up!
Wow! That must have been an amazing smoothie!! I LOVE mangoes and bananas just give it the perfect sweetness 😛 I’ve never thought about adding oatmeal either, but it sound like a yummy addition 🙂
It is great with the oats but you’ll have to thin it out a little with orange juice. I love Mango and Banana as well (actually I love alllll fruit) and this is my favorite smoothie so far. Thanks for commenting 🙂
