Mango Smoothie
Yields 4 cups - 2 large servings
2 ripe mangoes
2/3 banana
1 apple
1/4 cup milk
2 tablespoons unsweetened yogurt
Optional: 3 tablespoons vanilla ice cream (it had to be eaten - it was getting all crystallized. So sue me.)
- Peel the banana, core and cut your apple into large chunks. Toss into the trusty blender and pulse a few times.
- Peel and dice the mango - this will be messy. Toss into blender with the yogurt, milk, and maybe the ice cream. Blend until smooth.
- For a thinner shake, use more milk. For a thicker shake, use more ice cream, ice, or less ripe mango.
- Enjoy!
I made this again last night with 2 mangoes, 2 clementines and a banana. no ice cream, just more yogurt. I ran the whole thing through a strainer (a chinois, as per French cooking class) and the whole smoothie was so much smoother since all the mango threads were gone. Optional step, but truly worth it.
