Mango Banana Protein Smoothie

A creamy mango smoothie with Greek yogurt and chia seeds.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup frozen mango chunks
  • 1 banana
  • 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds

Instructions

  1. Add the frozen mango chunks and banana (break it into a few pieces for easier blending) to a blender.
  2. Spoon in the Greek yogurt and pour in the milk.
  3. Add the chia seeds on top.
  4. Blend on high for 45 to 60 seconds until completely smooth and creamy, with no visible chunks remaining.
  5. Check the consistency — if it's too thick, add milk a tablespoon at a time and pulse until you reach your desired thickness. If too thin, add a few more frozen mango chunks.
  6. Pour into two glasses and serve immediately for the best texture.

Tips

  • Using frozen fruit instead of fresh gives you a thicker, frostier smoothie without needing ice (which can water it down).
  • Swap the milk for coconut milk or oat milk for a dairy-free version (keep the yogurt or use a dairy-free alternative).
  • Add a tablespoon of protein powder or a handful of spinach for an extra nutritional boost — you won't taste the spinach.
  • Prep smoothie packs by portioning the mango and banana into freezer bags so you can blend in seconds on busy mornings.
