Mango Banana Avocado Smoothie Benefits

Mangoes are not only a delicious addition to smoothies but a nutritious one, too. They not only contain plenty of antioxidants but also a rich source of ،،ium (more than bananas!), folate, and vitamins C, K, A, and E. They are also great for reducing inflammation while benefiting skin, eye, digestive, ،, and immune system health.

Meanwhile, bananas add plenty of natural sweetness and flavor along with fiber, ،،ium, vitamin C, vitamin B6, and even antioxidants. This combination is beneficial for blood pressure, ،in, heart, nervous system, and immune health.

Last but not least, the benefits of avocadoes in smoothies are plentiful. They are known for their high antioxidant and heart-healthy ، content. They also contain a plet،ra of nutrients– like vitamin C, E, K, B, magnesium, ،،ium, folate, etc. They’re even beneficial to gut health while making super creamy smoothies.

The Ingredients and Subs،utes

• Mango: We make things easy using frozen mango. However, feel free to use fresh (and freeze it yourself) during mango season or canned mango pulp.
• Avocado: Use a soft, ripe avocado to add healthy ،s.
• Banana: Use frozen, slightly overripe bananas for a thick smoothie with naturally sweet flavor. Check out this guide on freezing bananas if needed.
• Lime juice: Fresh is best and brightens the flavor of this creamy avocado banana mango smoothie. Lemon, pineapple, or orange juice would work, too.
• Plant-based milk: Use any unsweetened milk. I.e., almond milk, cashew, soy, coconut milk (a favorite of ours), etc. For a lighter option, use coconut water.

If you don’t have frozen ingredients, you can add ice to help make a colder, thicker smoothie.

What Could I Add To A Mango Avocado Smoothie?

• Pineapple: Replace some or all of the mango with pineapple (fresh or frozen) for even more tropical flavor and nutrients.
• Spinach/kale: Make a nutrient-dense, antioxidant-rich green smoothie with mango by adding 1-2 handfuls of spinach or kale (remove tough stems).
• Vanilla extract: Just a little for ice-cream-like flavor.
• Spices: Add more flavor with a pinch of cinnamon, cardamom, ،, or turmeric.
• Protein powder: Add a scoop of unflavored or vanilla protein powder.
• Seeds: A tables، of chia/، seeds add protein and healthy omegas.
• Nut ،er: Like peanut ،er, almond ،er, or cashew ،er for protein, richness, and more heart-healthy ،s in the banana avocado mango smoothie.
• Oats: Add ¼ cup of rolled oats for fiber that helps keep you full for longer.
• Rosewater: Just a little complements the avocado and mango smoothie flavors.

FAQs

Pro Recipe Tips

• To adjust the thickness: Adjust ،w much liquid you add.
• To adjust the consistency: Using fresh vs. frozen fruit is one of the easiest ways to adapt the smoothie consistency, from creamy (using mostly fresh ingredients) to soft-serve-like (using mostly/all frozen).
• For the easiest blending: Place any liquids and soft ingredients closest to the blades and any harder or frozen ingredients after that.

Storage Instructions

When using frozen ingredients, consume the smoothie immediately before it melts. When using fresh fruit, store any leftovers in the fridge for up to a day, but note the nutrients deteriorate over time.

You can also freeze any leftover smoothie, either in a Ziplock/Stasher bag or in a popsicle mold – for up to 3 months.
