Prepare Ingredients.
Gather all ingredients: 1 scoop of whey protein powder, 1 cup fresh spinach, 1 cup frozen mango chunks, and 1 cup unsweetened almond milk. Measure carefully for accurate nutrition.
Tip: Use packed spinach to ensure you have the full cup amount. -
Add Ingredients to Blender.
Place the frozen mango chunks and fresh spinach into the blender first. This helps the blades blend the harder frozen fruit more efficiently.
Tip: Adding frozen fruit first prevents the protein powder from sticking to the bottom. -
Add Protein Powder and Almond Milk.
Add the scoop of whey protein powder on top of the fruits and spinach. Then pour in the unsweetened almond milk.
Tip: Pouring the liquid last helps the blender mix everything smoothly. -
Blend Until Smooth.
Secure the blender lid tightly. Blend on high speed for about 30 to 60 seconds, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy with no visible chunks of spinach or mango.
Tip: If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more almond milk and blend again. -
Serve and Enjoy.
Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately for the best flavor and texture.
Tip: Clean the blender right away to prevent residue from sticking.
Pro tips
- For an extra creamy texture, let the frozen mango sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before blending.
- If you prefer a colder smoothie, add a few ice cubes and blend again.
