🥭 Ingredient notes
Mangoes – I use frozen mango chunks in this recipe but you could absolutely use a large ripe mango instead.
Raw carrots – You just need one medium carrot or a few baby carrots for this recipe.
Strawberries – For some extra fruity goodness and flavor!
Ginger – This adds some zing to the smoothie. Plus, ginger helps boost your immune system and aids with digestion. And it enhances all the other flavor combinations.
Orange juice
Yogurt – Vanilla yogurt to add flavor and consistency.

❓Recipe FAQ
Greek yogurt tends to have a creamier texture than regular yogurt, so feel free to use that instead if you prefer a thicker smoothie.
This smoothie should stay fresh in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one day.
Yes, they should keep for up to 3 months in an airtight container in the freezer.
A ripe mango should feel slightly soft when you hold it. If you press on it gently, the skin should give a little but not too much. If they’re too soft, they’re overripe. If they’re too hard, they’re not yet ripe enough.
👩🏽🍳 Tools and equipment
The most important piece of equipment you’ll need to make smoothies is a blender.
I have this high-powered blender from Vitamix that I’ve been using for years and I love it.
This more basic blender isn’t as high-powered, but it will still do a great job blending smoothies!

This is delicious but I’m guessing you meant to say Ginger in your recipe not garlic 😂
My husband and I enjoy making delicious healthy smoothies at home. This beautiful Mango Strawberry Carrot smoothie looks completely amazing. I’ve already shared this recipe with a good friend of mine who is also trying to incorporate more fruits and veggies into her daily diet. Thank you so much for sharing this delightful recipe!

Yay! It’s a nice healthy alternative! Thanks, Madison!
