Green smoothies have long been one of my favorite ways to up my vegetable intake. But shakes in general have been a go-to of mine. Using shakes as snacks allows you to consume a variety of health promoting foods that you normally wouldn’t have time or bother to get in (though adding a greens supplement definitely helps!)
This mango orange smoothie is perfectly balanced containing fruits (carbohydrates) to give you energy or replenish your muscles, spinach to boost your health, avocado to give your body some necessary fats and protein to keep you full.
Because it contains a variety of nutrients, it makes the ideal smoothie. You can whip one up for breakfast to get your system revved and keep you full. You can grab one for a bit of energy on a midday slump. Or you can use this smoothie as your post workout meal to give your body some necessary fuel.
Regardless of when you make one, this shake is tasty, sweet and perfectly healthy for you!

- Juice of one orange (roughly 1/3-1/2 cup)

09/19/2017 at 7:23 pmThat is a beautiful smoothie and sounds really tasty! I would sub the spinach for baby kale though…kidney stones put me on a strict no spinach diet 🙁

09/20/2017 at 12:30 amAh no spinach?! I would die lol though baby kale is super yummy! I’d freeze the kale before blending it so it blends a bit smoother!
