Mango Banana Smoothie
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 🙂
