Green Mango Smoothie

1 large mango peeled and chopped

1/4 cup frozen spinach

2-4 leaves of kale

1/2 banana

1/2-3/4 cup fresh orange juice or almond milk

 Blend the fruit first using half of the liquid. Once combined, add the greens and the rest of the liquid. Blend until the consistency is smooth. 

Enjoy!

*Remember, there are no rules or limits to your creativity. If you don't like kale, just stick with the spinach. If you want your smoothie thicker use less liquid. 

If your cutting calories use water instead of juice...the options are endless!

Enjoy for breakfast or as a healthy snack in the middle of your day!
