🥘 Ingredients

7 items

• 1 large mango (ripe, peeled, and pitted)
• 2 medium carrots (peeled and chopped)
• 1.5 cups orange juice (freshly squeezed)
• 0.5 cups plain Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for sweetness)
• 6 pieces ice cubes
• 0.25 cups water (optional, for adjusting consistency)

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. Peel and pit the ripe mango. Chop it into medium-sized chunks for easier blending.

2. Peel and chop the carrots into small pieces. If you do not have a high-powered blender, consider steaming the carrots lightly and letting them cool before using to ensure a smoother texture.

3. Add the mango chunks, chopped carrots, and freshly squeezed orange juice to the blender.

4. Spoon in the plain Greek yogurt for creaminess.

5. Add honey if you'd like a touch of added sweetness.

6. Toss in the ice cubes to make the smoothie chilled and refreshing.

7. Blend the mixture thoroughly on high speed until completely smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add a little water (a tablespoon at a time) and blend again until desired consistency is reached.

8. Taste your smoothie and adjust the sweetness or thickness if needed by adding more honey or water.

9. Pour the smoothie into two serving glasses and enjoy immediately for the freshest flavor.
