Prepare Ingredients.
Measure out 1 cup of fresh spinach, 1 cup of frozen mango chunks, 1 cup of plain low-fat Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon of chia seeds, and 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk. Having all ingredients ready makes blending smooth and easy.
Tip: Use packed spinach to get the full cup measurement. -
Add Ingredients to Blender.
Place the spinach, frozen mango chunks, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, and almond milk into your blender jar. Adding the almond milk last helps the blades move smoothly.
Tip: If your blender struggles with frozen fruit, let the mango chunks thaw slightly for 5 minutes. -
Blend Until Smooth.
Secure the blender lid tightly. Start blending on low speed, then gradually increase to high speed. Blend for about 1-2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and creamy with no large chunks.
Tip: If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more almond milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, and blend again. -
Serve and Enjoy.
Pour the smoothie into a glass. You can sprinkle a few extra chia seeds on top for garnish if desired. Enjoy immediately for the best flavor and texture.
Tip: Use a straw to enjoy this thick, nutrient-packed smoothie.
Pro tips
- For extra sweetness, add a small drizzle of honey or maple syrup, but remember this will increase calories and carbs.
- To boost omega-3 fats, soak chia seeds in almond milk for 10 minutes before blending to create a gel-like texture.
