🥭 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

Can I substitute Greek yogurt for regular yogurt in a smoothie?

Greek yogurt tends to have a creamier texture than regular yogurt, so feel free to use that instead if you prefer a thicker smoothie.

How long will this smoothie stay fresh?

This smoothie should stay fresh in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one day.

Can I freeze this smoothie for later?

Yes, they should keep for up to 3 months in an airtight container in the freezer.

How can I tell if a fresh mango is ripe?

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!
