Here's another yummy Mango Smoothie I whipped up the other day with variations to one I posted a few months ago. I am very short on free time these days so without further ado, here's the recipe:
Honey Mango Smoothie Recipe Ingredients: 1 cup of chopped mango - fresh or frozen 3 oz of Chobani Greek Yogurt - plain or vanilla (actually yogurt can be optional) 1/4 cup orange juice 1 tsp honey a squirt of lime juice half a dozen ice cubes
Combine in your Smoothie Blender. Process until smooth. Serve immediately, and enjoy!

Sometimes, I think adding dairy (the yogurt, in this case) causes the mango to lose some of its rich flavor and sweetness, though it will obviously be a smoother, creamier consistency. If the mango is not frozen, it will certainly blend easily without the yogurt. The addition of the yogurt will give you more protein. I also think the lime juice helps to bring out some more flavor of the mango. So as you can see, you can play with the options a little. No matter what you decide you like the best, this is a healthy and refreshing Honey Mango Smoothie. Of course you can also use Florida Mangoes, but I am now sold on the Honey Mango, or Champagne Mango for its sweetness and less fiberous consistency.
