Bango Smoothie: A Simple Berry/Mango Smoothie

We drink this smoothie when we just want a nice fruity flavor with some added veggies sneaking in!

Ingredients:

• 1-2 cups frozen berries/banana/mango (the more fruit, the thicker the smoothie)

• 1 tbsp nut or seed butter

• 1 serving protein powder/collagen (either unflavored or vanilla) of choice

• 1 cup canned coconut or almond milk

• 1/2 avocado

• Optional: add 1/2 cup raw veggies if your gut can tolerate it! (zucchini/frozen riced cauliflower are two of our favorites)

Directions:

• Pour cup of milk into blender (Pro Tip: adding milk first helps blend easier)

• Add frozen fruit while blender is running

• Mix in protein powder and nut/seed butter

• Add in optional raw veggies

Notes:

• We recommend almond butter or sunflower seed butter

• Check the amount of sugar in your alternative milk, brands can be sneaky about how much added sugar they put in. Canned coconut milk is a great option.

• We like to use the following types of protein: plant based, egg white, pumpkin seed, hemp seed, grass-fed whey, or bovine/marine collagen (Check out our Protein Powder blog post to see more!)
