Easy Creamy Green Mango Smoothie

A creamy green mango smoothie is a refreshing and nutrient-packed way to start your day or enjoy as an afternoon pick-me-up. The base of this smoothie comes from Greek yogurt, which not only adds a rich, velvety texture but also provides a significant source of protein. With around 15 to 20 grams of protein per serving, Greek yogurt helps keep you full and supports muscle repair, making this smoothie a satisfying choice for breakfast or post-workout fuel.

The vibrant green hue of this smoothie comes from a handful of baby spinach, which blends seamlessly without overpowering the flavor. Spinach is loaded with vitamins like A, C, and K, along with iron and antioxidants that support overall health. A touch of fresh ginger adds a bright, invigorating zing, balancing the natural sweetness of the fruit while offering digestive benefits and anti-inflammatory properties.

Frozen mango gives this smoothie its creamy, naturally sweet base, bringing in a dose of fiber and energizing carbohydrates. Mango is packed with vitamin C, which supports immunity, and its fiber content helps promote digestive health. Blending it all together creates a smooth, luscious texture without the need for added sugars, making this green mango smoothie both nourishing and delicious.
