Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Fresh orange juice
- 1 cup Frozen mango chunks
- 1 medium Frozen bananas
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt (unsweetened)
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon Honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 4 pieces Ice cubes
Instructions
Peel and slice a ripe banana, then freeze it ahead of time. Ensure all other ingredients are pre-measured and ready to use.
Add the fresh orange juice to a blender as the base liquid.
Next, add the frozen mango chunks, frozen banana slices, and Greek yogurt to the blender.
Sprinkle the chia seeds on top for an extra boost of fiber and nutrients. If you'd like the smoothie slightly sweeter, add honey or maple syrup at this stage.
Add the ice cubes to the blender to give the smoothie a refreshing chill and thick consistency.
Blend all the ingredients on high speed for 1–2 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy with no chunks remaining.
Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness or thickness as desired. Blend for an additional 10 seconds if adjustments were made.
Pour the orange smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of chia seeds or a slice of orange for presentation.
