Green Smoothie Of The Day: Mango Avocado Morning Bliss
Since the mango season is slowly nearing its end It's time to get the last cheap and free mangoes in and stock up the freezer! Though there will still be mangoes available all year round because some Cambodian farmers have figured out a way to make their trees bear fruit twice a year, it is just not the same.
The past few months it has been mangoes all around. But that's ok, other fruits are emerging now! Such as durian. It's a very expensive fruit, but oh so delicious! If you never had it you should try it one day.
Ingredients
2 cups packed fresh spinach
2 cups water
1 avocado
1.5 cup mango chunks
1 banana chunks
1/2 lime or lemon, juice only
Directions
- Blend spinach and water until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients and blend again. If the smoothie is too thick for you, add more liquid base. If you have a high-speed blender, you can throw in everything at once.
- Optional: Add superfoods/toppings - such as goji berries, hemp hearts, or raw cacao nibs - if you like.

I feel so blessed with all the mangoes here! In Belgium we used to pay about $3 for one... here I'm giving them away for free! Thanks @vegetarianbaker for taking the time to leave a comment!

This sounds so good and healthy! Now I just have to make myself buy these ingredients instead of Peanut Butter Captain Crunch when I go to the grocery store! :)
Hehe... it's the baby in the belly talking! I'm sure Peanut Butter Captain Crunch tastes amazing, too! But to be honest, if I would crave something sweet I would sneakily visit your sister though! Thanks for dropping by and again welcome to the steemit tribe!
Oh, my, @gringalicious does know how to settle some cravings! She has actually made me homemade Peanut Butter Captain Crunch! :)
Such a sweet sister you have ;)
Oh, yes, amazingly sweet. :)
Amazing!! :) I'm gonna stock up on mangoes and freeze them as well :P Upvoted!
Our freezer is packed with fruits... especially mango and jackfruit at this time of the year! Would be a real shame to let all that goodness go to waste! Thanks for your ongoing support @taraamin77!
